MAJOR UPGRADES: Lycoming O-360 180HP (STC), Long range tanks - 39 gal usable (STC). This makes this a VERY
unique airplane with amazing performance. This plane climbs like a monster - it's got 43% higher power/weight than a
C182 (by my calculations). Owner used to live in Arizona and had absolutely no problems at high altitude fields on
hot days (density altitude 10,000 ft or more at times). In the past the aircraft was continually contacted by banner and glider towing companies.
