Hi all,  

Know this is not really a commander question but.  

Do any of you know or have had dealings with Bob Cullen at Chino.  

Reason is we are looking to buy a Beech 18.  

   

Anyone know where we can find a decent 18?  

   

Cheers  

Richard  

   

680E”s and a short strip. You gotta love them.

Richard,

You just missed a great 18F, one of the last batch built (original owner, Mayor Daley of Chicago) right under your nose.

It has just taken up residence with its new owner in Perth, delivered from YSBK in the last few days ---- and the $$$ was a steel, AUD$140,000, one low time engine, one half life, two almost new props, all ADs up to date, but some avionics National Trust classification eligible. 

Cheers,

Bill Hamilton

I have know Bob for a number of years and have been to his operation a number of times.I have not purchased any aircraft from him.  He seems to have a good reputation.

He is a small single or two man operation.  The service work is done by sub contractors.  He has been around a long time.

I just checked his new web site and did not see a Twin Beach.

Do you need someone to go look at something?

There was a Twin Beach for sale in New Mexico that I heard about.

I have my Twin Bonanza maintained by a shop that specializes in Beech 18s.  I'm sure they know much of the fleet out there and if anyone is looking to sell.

Blackhawk Aircraft Maintenance is the shop.  Nick and Joe Quint are the father and son team.  Don't be put off by the pace of their speech, they know their stuff, and know where the bodies are buried.  Very nice folks, too.

Hi Rich, 



Have you talked to Ian about this one: http://classifieds.aviationadvertiser.com.au/detail.php?id=1900



I think it is VH-FIE - really nice and has been well looked after over a long period.



You might snag it for around $180K - which would be good value - already on the ground here in Oz.



Let me know how you go...



Cheers

If you want a Beech 18 expert, contact Butch Card at Stetson Aviation in Karnes County, TX.

They have restored a "few" oshkosh and sun n fun winners and have a D18 for sale right now. They are a small family run shop with Butch and his sons working on the aircraft. Their website is 

www.stetsonaviation.com.

Phone numbers etc are on the website. Regardless of where you buy from, I would pick their brains on the aircraft as they are super nice guys and know their stuff. .

Hope it helps.

Richard,

As a guide, the one I mentioned went for AUD$140,000, it was a trike with all Ads up to date and in good shape.

Cheers,

Bill Hamilton

Richard, 

Re. Chino, I checked with two of my best friends, who happen to be long time Chino, their advice ( as on the spot locals) is that "caveat emptor" reigns supreme, with bells and whistles.

Personally, this goes anywhere, there are no friends where a $$ is concerned.

Cheers,

Bill Hamilton
