-Kept in Climate controlled hangar since 2001,
-Paint is 2001 and is very, very good. -No Corrosion, NONE!
-A true delight to fly, If you see it, you will buy it. -I regularly fly this beauty, maybe an hour or so per week. -Amazing visibility, and you can take 4 people!
-All logs since new, with some reconstructed years from 2003-2014, (Owners health was very poor, and some records were lost in the estate, I personally; like face to face, talked with neighbors, and the engine shop that put it together to fill in the blanks.) -NDH,
Engine was installed in 2008 and run regularly since then but not flown, (owner had lost medical, then passed away in late 2014). I had it gone over from top to bottom, and have been flying it weekly. -Only selling because I need more seats, otherwise I would never sell it; I don’t know of a more practice and fun plane for the money and fuel burn. Would possibly trade for a Navajo.
-This is a big Airplane, tons of elbow room, and tons of head room. I think you could be 6’8” and still easily fit. I’m 6’1” 230lbs and it’s an easy, easy fit for me.
I’ll gladly answer any and all questions, I’m not a broker, this is my plane. A few spare parts. Engine parts are easy to come by.
This is the plane featured on the here website. Here a link to the entire story of the plane: here
