This Heavily Damaged Upside-Down Airplane Is For Sale And Can Be Yours

If you're going to sell a Cessna 172 H on Craigslist, don't show the plane lying upside down. It makes the thing look like a sad little turtle flipped on its back.

The seller, Jim, explains how the $16,500 plane got so vertically challenged.

It started out as a bad hair day, ya know kinda windy, got called out to plow, course here in DV we plow gravel off the road, anyway must have had a twister come thru so i spent the afternoon flipping my plane.

We applaud Jim for his honesty, but the picture is not the best way to attract buyers.
