1952 De Havilland DHC-2 BeaverSingle-Engine Piston Aircraft • TX, USA

This 1952 De Havilland DHC-2 Beaver, serial number 52-6109, is a fully updated example of the ultimate STOL and bush plane, currently configured as a land plane but easily convertible back to floats or amphibious operation. Having been restored in 1987 and converted from military to civilian service in 1972 with all civilian logbooks since, the airframe has been the subject of significant recent work. A new birdcage, forward fuselage struts (a 10-year AD item), and windshield were all installed in September 2024, coinciding with the 9/2024 annual inspection. The seller reports no known damage history.

Power comes from a Pratt & Whitney...
