Description
Low hours! This is a fun, powerful, adventurous, and very economical flyer. Don ́t wait to experience the joy of flying this high-performance aerobatic machine.
There are very few Super D's in the country, they are rare and even more rarely come up for sale.
Always hangered. Very well-maintained aircraft. Complete logs. No damage history. 3 Owners since new, all private use, never for hire.
A lot of power in a very light fully aerobatic plane.
This is a certified aircraft, not an experimental homebuilder's project.
