Default Mini-500 for sale

I was told that a few people at Mentone were looking for a Mini-500 helicopter to buy, then get with John for his upgrades.

Well......just today in my Trade-A-Plane there sits a Mini-500 for sale in the helicopter section. It is in excellent running shape right now...though the engine would be switched to a Yamaha if John works it over.

Thought I would pass this on as one needs to start with a Mini-500 to come up with a MH1.

This Mini-500 has only 5 hours on a brand new 582. current condition inspection...VAL 760 digital com----Narco transponder...75 hours...Complete logs... Priced for quick sale. So the engine could be sold for a gyro. The phone number is 757-615-9504. Ask for Brian.

the m-500 posted in trade-a-plane is a brokered sale, they want $24,900, the broker said the price is fairly firm, what ever that means !

Stan- Fairly firm means they want as much as close to the asking price as they can...but gives them some wiggle room if someone offers a max price thats $500 less.

Ken....That Mini for $8000 at Homers would be the best way to go even if the engine was gone. If the rest of the machine is there and is ok......Johns MH1 conversion could get someone a nice ship.
