Thermalseeker Posted July 23, 2014 Report Share Posted July 23, 2014 The Straton D-7 is a homebuilt motorglider. So, resale value is difficult to determine. It will depend on the condition of both the airframe and the engine, as well as who manufactured the engine. Total flight time on the airframe and engine are important to list, as is any damage history that it might have. I've seen D-7's advertised in the $15,000-$20,000 range, but I don't know if that is what the selling price or the asking price. When you are ready to advertise it be sure you include a picture if you have one of it set up. Even better, post one of it flying.There are three aviation classified ad websites I recall off the top of my head that you might want to consider for advertising:www.barnstormers.com (modest fee, lists all manner of aircraft and has a special section for gliders and motorgliders)www.wingsandwheels.com (free, generally only lists sailplanes and motorgliders and has a separate page dedicated to motorgliders)www.tradeaplane.com (modest fee, one of the oldest and widely read aviation want ad publications, lists all manner of aircraft and has a special section for gliders and motorgliders)Good luck with it. Feel free to contact me off list if I can be of further assistance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
