Jeffrey,
message below from Jim Miller (Sultan),.
Jim asked me for my thoughts on a light prebuy inspection that would prove the integrity of the Boeing. I told Jim to inspect
internal wing plates, I feel good there is no corrosion issues in these areas, visual in tail section (we just addressed corrosion
there last year, I feel good about this area also).
Jim has contracted two mechanics to do a visual inspection of the Boeing, and would like to accomplish this next week, if you
approve. approx. 12 hours.
It appears the Sultan is excited about the prospect of this purchase after looking at the photos and Jim's meeting with me on
the Boeing.
do you approve of this inspection for the Boeing?
thx
Larry

Hello Larry,
I have been talking to Sultan - a lot - about the 727 and he really appreciated the floor plan. Having
never been aboard the aircraft I think it really helped orient him to the 250 + pictures I took!
I have spent a lot of time running down competent authority to do the inspection and all of these roads
have led me to Steve Weisberg of Pro-Tech Advisors. (http://www.protechadvisors.com)
There are many who know the 727 (Timco and FlightStar) and even more who are willing to inspect
and determine market value but very few who can or want to do this sort of pre-purchase inspection. I
had to rule out Stambaugh simply to avoid the appearance of conflict of interest by a contractor.
Pro-Tech Advisors can send up 2 techs to go through the aircraft starting next Thursday.
We can perform the inspection as you outlined below (visual only - no borescope) next week. Any
required access (removal of panels, etc) would need to be performed by the MRO. Obviously we
would need suitable access to the aircraft and any kind of general maintenance stands and lifts as
necessary.
We estimate that the inspection will take approximately 12 hours over a two day period.
I have not signed off the inspection even though I am in a hurry to get it done. Once it is done and
favorable it is our intention to really step up our role and that is something we all are looking forward
to.
Please let me know if you could arrange to have Stambaugh accomodate these fellows next week or if
not - when.

We will certainly pay for any time they spend pulling panels or whatever is necessary to allow the
access needed.
Thank you and any comments you have about this process are aways welcome.
Jim
