Breaking News! Our Extra 400 is back on the market (2 contracts fell through because lenders wouldn't finance an Extra 400 and maintenance could not be obtained in Shreveport). If you're an A&P (or have access to one) and are looking for a unique, very capable aircraft, give me a call! It was donated to us in late 2019,in Shreveport, LA and we’ve been waiting for it to be ferried to our hangar so we could perform the annual inspection and install ADS-B. For a bunch of reasons, that just hasn’t happened (other priorities, COVID, finding an experienced 400 pilot, coordinating schedules, etc) so we’ve decided to sell it “As Is, Where Is”. We have had our chief pilot and A&P/IA travel down to Shreveport twice to check it out, take photos and perform a ferry flight inspection (it’s ready to go). The airplane has been moved to a shadeport since the photos were taken. For those that are unfamiliar with the Extra 400, it’s a really neat plane; all composite (very strong) and technically advanced (liquid cooled engine – to avoid shock cooling), turbo-charged, pressurized, air-conditioned, and fully de-iced (wings, tail, prop, windshield). Its competition is the Cessna Pressurized 210 and Piper Malibu. The 400 cabin is larger than both. Unfortunately, it is a “double orphan”, the airframe manufacturer has gone bankrupt (only 27 400’s were built), though I do understand parts are available from another organization based in Germany and Continental has stopped supporting any unique parts for their liquid cooled 550 Voyager engine. For this reason and the fact that it is not annualed or been equipped with an ADS-B transponder, we are selling it for $100 – $150K less than competitive aircraft. Buying this aircraft will help support our charity's humanitarian efforts in the US & internationally.

Continental TSIOL-550-C1B, s/n 803270. The engine has 2,032 TT, 833 SMOH (in 2010), and in 2016 all 6 cylinders were replaced during a top overhaul, 80 STOH. During the ferry inspection, we did compression checks (78,76,78,76,78,72) and borescoped the cylinders (no issues found). We ran the engine run; Prop control and mag checks and engine indications were normal. The prop was upgraded to the better performing MTV-14-D/195-30b in 2014 and has 268 hrs since then. |
