The 1966 Piper Cherokee 180 is a proven and reliable platform, and N9560J stands out with just 135 hours since factory rebuild on both the Lycoming O-360 engine and Hartzell constant speed propeller (completed August 2019). This low-time powerplant setup offers excellent value, reliability, and performance for the next owner. Combined with a useful load of 923 lbs, this aircraft is well-suited for personal travel, training, or time building.
This Cherokee stands out with performance-enhancing modifications, including a Horton STOL kit featuring leading-edge cuffs, droop tips, and gap seals. These upgrades significantly improve low-speed handling, short-field performance, and overall safety margins. Paired with a Hartzell constant speed propeller upgrade, the aircraft benefits from improved climb performance and cruise efficiency —making it a more capable and responsive platform than a standard fixed-pitch Cherokee 180.
Inside the panel, modern Garmin avionics anchor the cockpit, highlighted by a GTN-650 GPS/NAV/COM, delivering excellent situational awareness and IFR capability. With a clean, classic exterior and a functional four-seat interior, N9560J represents a well-rounded, upgraded Cherokee that blends proven reliability with meaningful performance improvements. Located in Conroe, TX (KCXO), this is a practical and capable aircraft ready for its next owner.
