    Description
    Well‑cared‑for 1967 Piper Cherokee 180C. This classic four‑place, single‑engine aircraft is ideal for both time‑building and economical cross‑country flying. With its proven Lycoming O‑360 engine and stable handling characteristics, the Cherokee 180C is known for being a reliable, forgiving platform for students, new pilots, and experienced owners alike. Four‑seat configuration with good useful load for passengers and baggage. Stable, easy‑to-fly handling and solid short‑field performance. Simple systems and affordable parts/maintenance compared to many other GA aircraft of its class. Great option for training, weekend trips, and 500-700 NM cross‑country missions. This 1967 Cherokee 180C offers classic Piper simplicity, dependable performance, and low operating costs ($55-$60/hr) perfect for an owner‑pilot looking for an honest, no‑nonsense airplane. This airplane has served our company well and has been a joy to fly. We have upgraded to a multi engine and now this fun flyer doesn't get out as much, though my wife and I still use it to get the occasional $100 hamburger and I make sure the engine get a good run up Bi-weekly if it doesn't get used. Maintenance is done to the standard where I feel good to let my momma fly in it. Transition training for insurance can be done if needed.
