Guys I would appreciate some comments on the purchase of a Xenon 2 ?
I can get one for around 30000.00 USD related into our local currency (+-450K ZAR) the bird had a roll over and was fully rebuilt by the agent, spares included new blades, booms mast and tail feathers with many other parts related to the RH.
The gyro is 9 years old and has a total of 254 hours Xenon RST the new parts have around 184 hours since rebuild.
I have confirmed that parts will be available from Trendak via our local agent so that concern has been addressed, the question is, is it wise to purchase a gyro of this age and how does the price look?
I'm going to see the gyro next week the pictures I have been sent it looks clean.
Comments do or donts most welcomed
