RV Prepurchase
Inspections:
My Hangar or Yours.
I also do prebuy inspections and appraisals for
RV's. My prebuy fee is $250 plus expenses (if I have to travel). For that you get a 3-4 page detailed report from nose to
tail of the aircraft. This includes verifying that all logbooks and paperwork are in order, any/all discrepencies
are highlighted, and proper rigging including triangulation of the wings and empennage is verified. I use a 1-10 point system
that is explained in minute detail so there is NO CONFUSION and NO SURPRISES if/when you make your purchase. I also provide dozens
of DETAILED photos of the aircraft/engine/panel/interior, including close ups of any 'blemishes'. After you receive the
report and photos via internet I'll go over everything by phone to be certain you know what you're buying and make
the right decision BEFORE you write the check. I put about 10 to 12 hrs into every prebuy inspection....this should tell you
that I do it for love and not for money :^)!!
