Looking for a ferry pilot for an RV-8 KSUS-KOBI (MO-NJ)

Hiya everyone,

I plan on purchasing an RV-8 on June 25th if the prebuy goes well. Next step is getting it ferried from KSUS (Saint Louis) to KOBI (Southern NJ).

I am not current, and out of BFR so I cannot do this myself. I'm also not keen on sitting backseat for the trip as there are no rudder pedals/throttle, and I'm 6'3" 250 lbs.

My insurance company has imposed the following minimum restrictions on the ferry pilot:

750 TT
250 TW
25 RV (Any model)

The aircraft is in excellent condition, day VFR with an IO360, Whirlwind C/S, 360 TTSN.

I have no problem paying the ferry pilot for their time, all travel expenses, and a flight back to KSUS on the airline of their choice. KOBI is local to Philadelphia International (KPHL) and Atlantic City (KACY).

Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

I can do it, but the dates may or may not quite work. I am supposed to fly a Husky on the 24th till the 26th, then may be able to do yours right after that. The Husky flight may cancel, so then your dates could work. I well exceed your insurance requirements, I have excellent references, and I'm a CFI, A&P, professional pilot.
 
Interested, exceed the insurance requirements. Fly a RV 4. Recently delivered a RV 6 from Aurora, Nebraska to NJ. Ward Combs 402 871 0039
