1982 CAP CAP-21Single-Engine Piston Aircraft • Mojave, CA, USA

The first production CAP-21 ever built, this 1982 example (registration F-GAUP) is offered for sale at $63,000. Imported to the US in 2010, the aircraft has been hangared since that time. Total time on the airframe is 515 hours, with the engine, a breathed-on AEIIO-360-A1B featuring a tuned exhaust, having logged 115 hours since installation. The seller notes these times will increase as the aircraft is still being flown. This is a piece of aviation history, described as a sporty piece of history with snaps and spins just like you remember.

The aircraft was flown through its import flight test program by world-famous test pilot Greg "Gecko"...
