Default Need Help with a Pre-Buy (JAX)
New guy trying to break into the world of RV's. I need help locating someone willing to travel to JAX, FL area to do a pre buy on an RV-4. Already PM'd Smokey but was wondering if their are others in the SE US willing to do it.

Thanks,

Steve

There are a number of RVs in the Dreamland Squadron (EAA 1379) in the Jax area. I am not sure how often they check the forums, but I will email one of the guys this morning to see if they can help you out. One of the RV4 owners is out of town but hopefully we can find someone for you.

I'm a friend of Smokey, not far from Jax. I can help with it if Smokey isn't available. Send me an email at jesse@saintaviation.com or call me at 352-427-0285.
