Description
This 2005 Diamond DA42 NG, N311LH, is an exceptional twin-engine aircraft that offers both beauty and performance. With approximately 3624 hours of airframe time, it stands as one of the cleanest and most aesthetically pleasing DA42s available. Despite its age, the condition and upgrades make it hard to believe this is a 2005 model. The aircraft was imported from Germany, where it was previously registered as D-GTTT, and later N-registered in the United States.
Performance and Features
N311LH is equipped with a comprehensive set of avionics and systems that make it ideal for serious pilots and cross-country flights. Key features include:
Garmin G1000 Integrated Avionics Suite: This modern system provides seamless control and navigation capabilities, allowing you to fly with confidence.
KAP 140 Autopilot: Delivers reliable automated flight control, reducing pilot workload.

Exterior
The exterior of N311LH presents remarkably well. The overall condition of the airframe and composite materials is outstanding, with only a few very minor scratches visible on the stripes. The wingwalks remain in superb condition, showcasing the level of care this aircraft has received. It's truly a testament to the maintenance this aircraft has undergone throughout its life.
Interior
The interior of this DA42 NG is a true standout. It features a stunning red and black quilted leather interior, which was recently redone in Austria. The luxurious cabin offers both comfort and style, making every flight a premium experience. There are no signs of noticeable wear, though there are a few minor scratches on the door frame. This interior redesign gives the aircraft a like-new feel, blending modern aesthetics with the trusted performance of the DA42 platform.
Additional Features
Tow Bar: For easy maneuvering on the ground.
Engine and Fuselage Covers: Providing extra protection when stored outdoors.
First Aid Kit: Ensuring that safety is always a priority.
The panel contains a small bolt/knob in the upper right corner where a satellite phone used to hang, a remnant of the aircraft’s time in Europe. This small detail is easily addressed but does not detract from the panel's overall function or appearance.
