Q: |
"Are wings removable to transport on a trailer ? " - Asked by #11421271 03/31/2022 10:42 PM |
A: |
The wings can be removed by someone who has experience disconnecting the flight controls, fuel lines, and pulling the wing attach bolts. They are not designed to be readily removable, but it is not a difficult task.

"What will be provided for title and verification of no lien, bill of sale , etc?" - Asked by #43175113 04/06/2022 04:48 PM |
A: |
We will provide an FAA AC 8050-2 Bill of Sale, Lien Release, and Court Order that transferred ownership to the Airport Authority. There should be no problem satisfying the FAA's need for a clean and complete chain of ownership.

There's not much to see without removing the cowling. I'll see if we can get a photo that might be useful for you.

A: |
West Star Aviation (800-922-2421) might be able to help or try Paul Voorhees at Big River Aviation (314-313-7978).

Q: |
"Aircraft grounded due to corrosion? Is this why it has not flown for 15 years? Why did it set for that long then?" - Asked by #43090253 04/07/2022 09:13 AM |
A: |
I have not inspected the aircraft structure, but I have no reason to suspect it might have a significant corrosion issue. It has always been hangared. My understanding is the owner passed away and there was no clear heir. It took several years going through the courts to obtain ownership due to nonpayment of the storage fees.

"will the contents of the hangar be included?" - Asked by #43230563 04/08/2022 12:00 PM |
A: |
No. Only items related to the aircraft. Restaurant items have also been stored in the hangar. They will be removed.

"Will the hangar will available for rent for 6 months or more if needed? " - Asked by #43231710 04/08/2022 01:05 PM |

Yes

Our Buyers Fees
With Municibid, pricing is clear, up-front and transparent. A buyer's fee (% of the winning bid amount) will be charged directly to the winning bidder upon the close of each auction via the credit card you entered prior to placing the bid. You pay the selling agency directly for the full cost of the item. (unless otherwise noted)
All Buyers fee's are aggregate unless otherwise noted. This means after you cross certain price thresholds you will pay a different buyers fee for the remaining amount. See below for an example.
Example:
If buyers fee is 8% for bids up to $99,999.99, 5% for bids $100,000 - $499,999.99, and 4% for bids over $500,000.
- Winning bid: $50,000: = Buyers fee: $4,000 (8% of $50,000).
- Winning bid: $150,000: = Buyers fee: $10,500 (8% of $100,000 = $8,000) + (5% of $50,000 = $2,500).
- Winning bid: $550,000: = Buyers fee: $30,000 (8% of $100,000 = $8,000) + 5% of $400,000 = $20,000) + (4% of $50,000 = $2,000).
Where can I see what the buyers fee is?
The current buyers fee will always be shown on the page of the listing under the current price in both the bid area and auction details area. You will also see the buyers fee amount you will pay for your entered bid on the page where you confirm your bid.
What if the selling agency rejects my bid?
If the government agency rejects your bid (they reserve the right to do so) your buyer's fee will be returned, in full, to you within 5 days of notification to Municibid of the rejected bid by the governing body.
