Do you have a way to ship these motors? If you could do you know what it would cost to ship to FL?
Pilot Wanted does not get involved with freight, deliveries, ferry flights, etc. However, you may check these guys..https://www.aitworldwide.com/aircraft-engine-transportation
Also, our experience lends us to believe that Fed-Ex and UPS will ship these also. Good Luck!
How would I go about checking with the seller though to see about having it put on a pallet and someone being available for the driver to meet and load the motor?
