FYI... We have just secured the listing on Avanti II S/N 1200. I'm taking photos/video of it tomorrow @ Brodies in Fort Worth. We should have all marketing materials posted to our website by early next week. "Make Offer" for now. Low time airplane with less than 2000TT and ESP on the motors. Will have more details soon.

The attention to detail and pride shown by DeWitte Binkley and his team is second to none. Whether you like my chosen scheme or not, a Sureflight’s product speaks for itself.
I’ll get some better pictures that show the “glass” feature of the paint.
They did put the erosion boots on. I was a little concerned about speed loss but the first flight speeds looked normal.
Perfect flight home. No squawks.
The actual highlight of the day was meeting BT’r Rich Palmer and getting to peek at a few beautiful and partially disassembled warbirds. Very impressive. Cool tribute to Dale Earnhardt Sr. Attachment: 257019E7-E89F-4E82-B78E-5BEA6EA7323E.jpeg If you’d like I will get you a large “3” cut out of vinyl for you. Love the new plane. Congratulations you deserve it. Peace, Don
