1973 Davis DA2AExperimental Aircraft • FL, USA
This is a truly unique opportunity to acquire a piece of EAA history: N27ED, the first plans-built Davis DA2A, serial number 2, and the personal project of Edward Dunn, a former B-29 pilot. Completed and flown in June 1973, the aircraft sat quietly for 27 years before undergoing an extensive reconditioning and refurbishment of both the airframe and powerplant. It has flown 70 hours since that refurbishment and now shows a total time of 725 hours on the airframe. The engine, a C85-12F, has 212 hours since major overhaul. The aircraft is offered for $38,000 from its location in Port Orange, Florida.
