Steen Skybolt pre-purchase, northern California

Borislav Deianov wrote in message ...
Hi,

I'm considering the purchase of a share in a Steen Skybolt (homebuilt
biplane). I'd never seen one before and my mechanical experience
consists of peeking under the cowl of rental aircraft (this would be
my first airplane). Needless to say, I need somebody familiar with the
type to have a good look at it. If anybody here is willing to do that,
or know anybody who might be, please drop me a note. The airplane is
based at RHV (San Jose, CA).

Thanks,
Boris

You really should have a pre-purchase inspection by a competent A&P.
Vern Miller and Brian Stout are both located at RHV. I believe Brian
Stout at Flying S Aviation owns a Skybolt himself. Either would do a
good job for you.

Thanks a lot, I'll try to get in touch with them.
