(digging into logs) ...

Looks like what ever this plane needed, it got, right away...
9700 hrs on airframe......

Snags jumped on, whatever replaced when needed..

Looks like the last 2600 hours were clocked in the last 4
years...it seems this bird flew every flyable day! We are going to
speak to the previous owners soon.. for their "sense" of the
engine...

We have been all over it, cleaning and touching up 100's of
paint chips & scratches..it looked tired, never washed, or paint
touched up...

Learning about our new toy...

Only thing now is a slight "slack" in the port landing gear
leg (fore/aft) . Anyone know the tolerence on this? (Mechanic is
replacing the bolts, but we suspect the LG holes may be the issue..)

Any suggestions?
