Do they want to get rid of the Warrior because of the run out engine?
Is it paid for.. not costing the club $$ other than insurance and operation?
Do they want to replace the warrior with a step up airplane? Archer or
Arrow?
Did the club set aside a rebuild fund?
A Warrior is a perfectly good training airplane.. why not just invest the
dollars for a rebuild and keep the plane? if they have not sold it in a
year... why not?

Our partnership decided to sell our '77 Warrior II while it still had
about
400 hrs left before TBO. That was a year ago. There is about 200 hrs left
now. Vref shows about 48K and we've dropped the price to 42K. She needs
paint and is right at TBO. She still runs strong and burns about 1qt of
oil
every 10-12 hours. All the ADs are current and other than the paint,
there
are no squawks. Its a good IFR platform and time builder with an STEC 40,
dual nav/coms and a panel GPS.
Should we:
a.) drop the price to 35K
b.) overhaul and paint (17K) and ask 59K
c.) do nothing and hope that we will eventually find a buyer
d.) something else that we haven't thought of
