Description
My Condor is the original prototype built by Rollasons in 1960. I have owned it for about eight years. In that time I have flown just over 200 hours. The aircraft itself has flown about 2500 hours and is still in very good condition.
The engine is what makes this Condor exceptional. In 2023 the engine was removed and rebuilt with new parts except for the cylinders (apart from one). The crankshaft, camshaft and cam followers were replaced, new piston rings installed after the cylinders were inspected. Since then the engine has completed less than 50 hours. The quality of the engine is reflected in the asking price.
