Used

Hangered Since New with only 2 corporate owners. Never used on lease or as school trainer. Flown professionally almost every month since new. Owner is moving to a Malibu to get pressurization. KING 525A H.S.I., Garmin 430 GPS/VOR/VHF, 330 Transp. w/traffic(TIS), 340 Audio w/intercom, Avidyne 740 MFD, King -65 DME, Garmin 396 w/Weather-radar, and winds, New paint in 04, excellent interior, Jan annual,. NDH

Useful load is 1181 #’s. With full 72 gal. fuel, the available weight to carry pax and baggage is 767 #’s. That means you can carry 4 adults and 100# of baggage, and full fuel. This airplane will do that, and still climb over 1000 fpm, and cruise 142 ktas at 13.7 gph. I don’t think there is another 4 place airplane made, that will equal that overall performance while carrying 4 adults with baggage. This very attractive airplane is set up with professional avionics, and is an excellent cross country airplane with the 430 driving the HSI, the 330 providing traffic, the 396 giving you uploaded doppler radar, winds, and critical weather information. In addition, the Avidyne gives you a large moving map of the information from the 430. The autopilot was recently reworked, and does a nice job of providing either nav or hdg guidance. This is an attractive airplane, well maintained, excellent service records, and hangered since new.

Engine 1169 Since Factory reman. with all cyl showing over 72 compression at Jan, 07 annual. Uses only 1 qt of oil every 20 hours. Original engine was flown to 2600 hours before being replaced with this engine. It was running well when replaced, but the insurance company wanted it replaced.
