1997 AVIAT HUSKY A-1 For Sale in Fort Worth, Texas Traded Accepted! Very solid, great flying husky for those looking to get into tailwheels or grab a solid backcountry STOL aircraft. It’s currently set up for glider/banner towing with an STC for the exhaust system. It can be flown under new LSA mosaic rules and it has the attachments for a seaplane conversion. This husky lived most of its life in Japan. It was well cared for under their strict maintenance program with logbooks to prove. Always hangared and fabric in great condition with a few minor patches. With the Lycoming 0-360A1P (180hp) and a constant speed prop, it will leap off the ground in under 400 feet (regardless of the load). Fresh annual with recent third party inspection after a long flight from the west coast. Plane will come with a spare set of gear legs. This plane flies awesome and is ready to fly!
