Mechanic has finished annuals on the L 3 and the Champ and Piper .The airplane and engine log books are located at the bottom of this page. T
Here are the AP reports:
N47474 Aeronca L3B
I found this aircraft to be in good mechanical condition. The fabric appears to be in good condition, spars, ribs and structure are clean and in good condition. Control cables, pullies and fairleads good and cable tension is proper. Control surfaces are straight and are properly adjusted. Tires show some signs of dry rot but is minor, oleo struts are ok.
The engine has good compression in all cylinders, oil leaks are minor. The engine runup was good, oil pressure was within limits, static power was within limits.
This aircraft in my opinion will make someone a very nice aircraft and with proper care will be a joy to fly for a numbers of years to come.

A local flying legend to many ,who was killed when he crashed his Ercoupe 415-CD on May 15 ,2020 ( you can google his name the crash and find the details) by clipping some trees near the runway at Hawkins County airport at the age of 83. There is no reserve and we are doing annuals on the planes and we expect to have those done by sale day), 1957 Studebaker Silver Hawk( this car will need some work however it will start), 1963 Volvo 1800 Model 498(vin.P18DO4980), and two other usable vehicles, large group of tools and aeronautical parts and pieces, shop equipment, tool boxes and tools , desk, airplane prints, propellers and place parts for restaurant decoration, A pair of Mid-Century Style molded hand chairs, fans, mowers and much more.

We are getting annuals done on each plane. High bidder can take their plane with them if they trust them to fly or the Hawkins County airport offers tie downs ( and maybe hanger space- feel free to contact them). All paperwork that we have found in the estate will be available on the Friday preview. You are buying the planes as is where is with no warranty. Fly at your own risk.

Nothing else will be previewed the Friday before the auction. Only planes. We are not airplane dealers but auctioneers. I know you would expect more from a private seller but we are doing what we cane do. These planes are going to sell and I m sure it would be worth a trip to Tennessee if you are looking for a plane.
