Coolidge, Have you settled on something? I just recently bought an Ercoupe. I obtained a tailwheel endorsement 10 years ago and owned an Aeronca Chief for a short period of time. I find the Ercoupe to be an enjoyable plane, easy to fly (no rudders) and had a blast ferrying it 200 nm back to TN...

Thanks AKBill. Hope to get a good one from Mooneys R Quicker.

Sent you a private message. Wish to take you up on your offer.

Joe, Thanks so much for your offer. I am going to have a local guy check to make sure it is the unit and not the antenna/coax/wiring and will let you know. George

Most on EBay have "No Returns" and the one's with returns are $500+ Don't want to end up with junk. Thanks AKBill. Safe flying in AK.

I recently purchased an Ercoupe and need to replace the Narco 150 AT as I would like to utilize VFR Flight Following. I don't intend to install ADSB-Out anytime soon, if ever. If anyone has one that works I am happy to purchase for a reasonable amount on the condition that it is working. Much...

Wayne, Just noticed your location after my post. Go Vols! Let's go flying some time. George

Good call Salty. Looking across the street at a big pile of rocks that the hardscapers mistakenly put in my neighbors driveway.

Congratulations. Safe flying. BTW, I like the fact that you can get on the FAA's web site and find aircraft of a particular make and model in your area. It is a good way to see it the owner's are interested in talking to you about their aircraft, taking you for a ride, or selling.

DaleB, Thanks a lot for the helpful advice. George

Thanks for the detailed reply Stan.

Plus anyone who is waiting loses a few years where they could have been flying. DaleB, Good points about the value achieved in paying more up=front for RV or other Experimentals over certified, legacy LSA. Does anyone have feedback on value in taking courses to learn how to maintain a...

FYI, I watched a recent video by Dan Johnson from Osh2019 where he updated the status of the FAA moving forward with new regs on LSA. Apparently they are working on a "formalistic" approach instead of simply gross weight. Dan estimated that they will be done possibly by the end of 2020 or into...

Thanks Stan. Appreciate all your help. George

Thanks jsstevens. Safe flying.

Stan, Thanks. I have followed your input on the 601 XLB and have started to consider it as well as Ercoupe although a nice one is a little above my budget. I have noticed a coupe of 601 HDs out there, one with a subaru engine. Auto engines converted for aircraft seem to present many potential...

I am a private pilot looking to fly under LSA flight rules. I have determined that the Ercoupe 415 C or CD models are qualify as light sport. One issue that I have run across is that many of these planes have been converted to model D over the years and then converted back to C or CD. The only...
