Selling an airplane with 200hrs
left on the engine is probably the worst time to sell it.


Maybe, but that runs neck&neck with "fresh overhaul."

The best time is when it has about 200hrs SMOH.


Yep. Buyers can be sure that you didn't get a cheap overhaul just to sell

the
plane.


I bought mine just 60 hours short of MOH. I wanted it that way because I
wanted to redo the engine (IO-550 exchange for the problematic TSIO-520-UB,
TN, Millennium cylinders). It had just enough time left to get some dual in
it, then send it to the shop for the rework.

I can't speak for others, but I'd rather do it my way.
