WTS: Monster IV-P 400HP LyCon New P&I BRS

[admin]

We include transition training and access to insurance*.[/size]
*Please call first before locking your name in with any broker.

This is an amazing airplane. It only has 90 hours TT. Kenny at LyCon was charged with making this engine "safe and reliable" and it still dyno'd at 400HP. Videos coming of the dyno. No expense has been spared and we have the invoices and work orders to prove it. Kenny did a 3-page "major overhaul" on the engine and replaced the crankshaft with new. It is sitting here in Milan waiting for installation.

This aircraft has RDD's BRS installation. It has Thermawing.

David Buckwalter has built a brand new dual G3X panel (carbon) with custom roll bottom for resting hands.

Brad is doing the interior and paint and there is still time to pick everything. There is no other IV-P or any other single piston that has all of these features including training, deice, new prop, new BRS, new panel, new tire, new paint, new interior, new engine plus SmartGlide and AOA and windshield deice and speedbrakes. And, we can help with insurance if you call first. You can pay a $million and go 100 knots slower.

Please PM me or call and discuss the entire process and package being offered. The pics and specs will be coming as the plane develops towards completion.

This airplane is expected to be a monster performer. I don't think we'll see another one like this for a while.

Visited the airplane today in the shop. All speed ahead for a post-Oshkosh completion. The seats are already done and material rolls of leather here. the headliner roll is here and will be a nice neutral color. See the photos. The engine is fresh from LyCon, full major overhaul, call Kenny if you want to talk directly to the shop that did the work and dyno'd at 400hp.

The David Buckwalter panel is going to be installed after OSH. The BRS chute is deactivated (thanks) while paint and interior is ongoing. Thermawing is in place. Speed brake are ready to go back in. The prop is about 10 hours SOH plus a composite spinner.

RDD did a ton of work on the airplane before it was flown to Brad's. In fact, the plane only has 90TT on it and basically say at RDD for all those years. The current owner has spared no expense in re-doing everything to his high standards (he is a car restoration expert) and he is a PPG expert. With the owner and Brad collaborating on the paint you will probably not see a nicer outcome on a IV-P. Get into position now and choose your scheme or wait for completion and likely a higher price.

Phone calls are starting, emails are coming in. A deposit will hold everything while you check things out. First come, first served. Here are a few shots from today. The old paint is coming off and it will be a really nice airplane when this is finished.

This is going to be a stunning IV-P. I've been at Brad's while the paint prep is being done and it is going to have a very special interior. The leather seats are done and the headliner is in the back room. David has built an amazing dual G3X panel and it has AOA, Garmin's new Smart Glide feature.

RDD did the BRS installation and wing, tail and windshield deice and prop deice. The wings are getting speed brakes added. The paint design is going to be a very nice 4-colour design by Brad's shop and the buyer can modify that up until about end of August is my estimate.

There is no expense spared in this airplane. LyCon was charged with building the best and safest engine possible for the buyer and this is the result. As completion gets closer we are moving pricing to reflect the increased valuations and decrease in quality airplanes. There is nothing like this airplane at this price with all of these features and monster performance. Lycon, Brad Simmons, David Buckwalter & RDD have all put their best into this Lancair and someone is going to be very happy. As is standard today, all LancairTalk assisted sales come with an enhanced training package and dedicated insurance channel. If you want to buy this airplane do not call your Cessna 172 broker or Gallagher or Falcon or Avemco or any of the shops until you discuss the latest market news for aviation insurance. Don't shoot yourself in the foot. PM me here to discuss how to get the best chance at coverage, training and acquiring this airplane or call.

This airplane was originally built to fly to Africa. It has a long range "pee" tube installed at the pilot seat and it is plumbed for long range tanks in the back seat. There are two tanks included, 50g and 37g. That is a lot of fuel. Will that get me to Hawaii?

I was just informed the panel is going to be carbon and will be set at a 8-degree tilt. This is going to be an awesome dual G3X panel with every feature available including SmartGlide on the panel. As it progresses we will send pictures but I expect we will see someone pick this up prior to completion. The price is now listed at the top of this topic and it includes full completion risk with everything specified and delivered and working. How many airplanes can you order new today at this fixed price point and all these new features and IV-P performance? Someone is going to get a deal. Or perhaps go buy an LX-7 and pay $300k more.

The panel is being shipped today so things are getting closer to completion. This is going to be an amazing BRS, 400HP, deiced, G3X monster IV-P. Or, you can order a Cirrus at 1.2MM and wait until the end of 2022 and go 100 knots slower.

Paint News: Brad is going to use PPG paint. The scheme is going to be very expensive custom application prescribed by the owner, a classic custom car rebuilder. The owner has specified nothing but the best for this build and that's the direction given to RDD for the BRS, Lycon for the engine, David for the panel and Brad for the paint and interior and completion.

The paint will be a base coat/clear coat system. The maroon is Ford Ruby Red metallic (paint code RR) which is a tri-color system. This will be challenging to apply but it is a beautiful color. It takes deep pockets for this system because it is a VERY expensive color. There will be white, black and gold additions and those are pretty much standard. The white will be an off-white solid. The black and gold are metallics. This paint scheme will be stunning.

The new N number N23AX.

here is the aircraft in primer and paint is probably close to completion now. I am telling people who are serious about a IV-P to lock this up with a deposit because once it is finished it will go for top pricing. IV-Ps with BRS, deice, Lycon, new prop, new G3X panel, new interior, new paint are not going to be easy to find. Snooze and lose.
