It's time to sell the Avid Bought by my father in 1990 and stored shortly after for 20 years. I bought the kit in 2011 and received A/W in 2014.  Serial number 846 which makes it a model C but has many MKIV upgrades including the baggage compartment and dual wingtanks.  I raised the roof during construction to give an additional 3" of headroom and extended the aerobatic speedwings.

Really nice looking plane and nice panel. You shouldn't have any problem finding a happy buyer.

I already have 3 Avids so not in the market, but curious what empty weight is. My fat Avid is 700 lb empty. I'm guessing you are at 640-660? Also curious what cruise is at 6 GPM fuel flow.  I assume you have fuel flow with the EIS? 

Six GPM in my Fat Avid tri gear with under camber wing, 21 inch mains and 600 X 6 nose wheel is 100 MPH plus or minus. I bet with the narrower fuse, smaller tires and speed wing, it really gets up and moves along.

Thanks Chris. I didn't use certified scales when it was weighed but I came up with 667. As far as gas goes I assume you mean 6 GPH? If so I don't have the fuel flow option installed but, if I remember correctly for flight planning purposes I was burning under 5 gph at 52-5300rpm and cruising mid 90's.

Good looking Avid, nice job! Surely would have generated attention if parked at the OSH UL field for the week last month. Between the KFs, Just As, Aerotreks etc, Avid representation felt a little light this year.

Yes of course I meant GPH! Sorry for the confusion.

That's interesting. I am in the 90's at 5 GPH too but when I give her more gas she just doesn't go too much faster :-)
