Bell UH-1H Huey for static display or possible restoration. This helicopter is complete for static display minus some non-visible interior components. The main rotor turns and flight controls move the engine is installed. I offer the option of selling for flight restoration as I have the logs and data plate. Please know that all of the main rotor, tail rotor, I 90DEG gearbox, transmission, engine, elevators and some instruments are non-airworthy and could not be re-used. They were installed for static display so, I would give some discount and remove them if you don’t want them. This aircraft is not type certificated you must do that yourself. The aircraft does not have release papers but, it did have an N number registry so there is record of military release. Please know that the trailer is not included in the sale.

A 1949 Funk has been spotted for sale. The listing states (in part):

2486 TT, 0-235 Lycoming conversion, hard landing to left gear, close to perfect!… Other mods are to modern Cleveland wheels and brakes, shoulder harnesses, wingtip strobes auto fuel approval, etc. Fabric on the whole airframe was recently (2006) upgraded to Ceconite… Last annual just expired 4/1/2021, so this airplane is fresh, not a sitter… A firm landing has resulted in the left side of the airplane sitting low… It is not clear what was bent, as there is no obvious fuselage wrinkling, nor obvious gear leg deformation. Perhaps there is a problem with the bungee cords. It would not appear that there is any serious deformation, and you can see there is no firewall deformation at all. No damage to the wings or tail… The 0-235 engine has been removed as it was beyond TBO. The exhaust system (undamaged), airbox assembly (undamaged) and engine mount (undamaged) are all included, as are the paperwork to reinstall either a 235- c, c1 or c2c! This aircraft is in very good to excellent condition, with a repairable isolated flaw.

The aircraft is located in Geneseo, NY and is available for US $5,995, although bids are also being accepted. Click here to check out the listing on eBay.
