Description
Detailed Description A beautiful Piper Cherokee with a recently overhauled engine, new interior, new propeller and avionics upgrade. The new owner will not have to worry about big ticket expenses, as everything has been completed. We are a small flight school in south central Wisconsin and purchased this plane in 2022 for flight training. It was used for this purpose approximately 400 tach hours and was well maintained. We decided to invest in a new engine, propeller, and avionics in 2025, thinking this would be a great addition to our school. Unfortunately, due to family health issues, we made a choice to wind down the school in 2026 and sell this plane. Please takeflightaviationwi.com As you can tell from the great paint condition, the prior owner, along with us have kept it hangered. This plane is ready to go and for you to enjoy with everything updated for hours/years to come! Please visit our website at takeflightaviationwi.com An absolutely beautiful Piper Cherokee 140/160 with a recently overhauled engine, new propeller, updated interior and anew avionics package. The airframe is low time and free from corrosion. I can say with confidence this aircraft will not be a disappointment.
