*sold*
N41475
Carlson Sparrow Sport Special
272 TTAE (HKS-700E 4-stroke)
$9,350
It's a great little airplane, but I found myself flying the Carlson very little now that I have the Mooney. I flew it to the glider place last Saturday because they specifically said "no Mooneys" in the invitation, but otherwise - not so much. Even so I would probably not sell, but unfortunately the wings do not fold, so I'm paying full price for the hangar (pictured).
Remember that I had a shunt in it back in 2013. I had the original builder restore it to "better than new" condition. Basically we put new wings/struts/tanks on it, all new fabric.
