Scheduled to be melted down for aluminum siding, VP's CEO saw a steal and bought the aircraft for $49.89, tax included. A prolonged two-day maintenance schedule was undertaken, as well as some quick spray painting, and, after a hefty bribe, the aircraft was declared airworthy by the FAA in 2001. The aircraft has had a lucrative career delivering passengers, cargo, medical supplies and manure anyplace, at any time. "No job too small; No fee too large." At Val-U-Prop! Where WE Val-U-You!!!
