Revive the FZRF - Cessna 185E

Discover the FZRF - Cessna 185E, an exceptional aircraft available at an attractive price of $39,000. Manufactured by Cessna in 1971, this aircraft carries a fascinating history with an Airframe Total Time Since New (TSN) of 3856.

Damage Assessment: This aircraft endured a series of challenges, including water submersion and a prop strike resulting from a float impact during landing. The incident led to severe structural damage throughout, with the floats ripped from the fuselage, and the spreader bars lost in the lake.

Engine Resilience: Despite these challenges, prompt action was taken to drain and preserve the engine, which remains in excellent condition. With a Continental IO-520D engine (S/N 563335) boasting 1226 hours Time Since Overhaul (TSO) since its new installation in '76, and a McCauley D2A34C58 propeller (S/N 7144202) with 534 hours TSO, this aircraft promises reliable performance for your aerial adventures.

Restoration Potential: While the structural damage is significant, there's still hope for revival. The FZRF retains good tail feathers and one intact float, making it an excellent project for enthusiastic aviators and restoration specialists. At Global Aircraft, we have 185 Spar Parts in stock, ready to aid in the aircraft's rebuilding process.
