Blemish Pictures

This is basically a “new” aircraft, and the other pictures should show it.  However, it is slightly used.  I thought I’d save everyone some time and actually take pictures of the blemishes you’d see if you came for a test ride.  They’re minor, but I’ll point them out.

Ugh - Interior mark in bagage area

In the baggage compartment, the very back wall has a smudge from luggage rubbing during flight.

Ugh - Spinner Marks

The front spinner was put on by an A&P with a shaky hand, apparently.  These scratches were on the spinner when I bought the plane.

Ugh - Cowling Cracks

The bottom cowling on the pilot side has two small cracks.  The picture makes them look huge, but they’re only about 3 inches long.  They aren’t structural and Cirrus warranty said they wont cover repairing them.  They did once before, but not a second time.  I should have removed the bug marks before I took this picture, ugh.

Ugh - Scratches top of wing Passenger side

The passenger/co-pilot wing has a few small scratches near the wing root.  I think this might have been from a suitcase??

Ugh - Antenna Crack

One of the antenna’s on the roof has a small crack about a quarter inch long.  Cirrus warrant wouldn’t cover it, oddly.  It’s been there since I bought the plane and hasn’t grown at all.
