Description
Detailed Description This 1976 Cherokee is well equipped for IFR flying, featuring a Garmin GTN 750 and an autopilot with altitude hold and three-axis trim. It is an excellent platform for IFR training as well as comfortable cross-country travel. With only 823.7 hours since major overhaul on the engine (as of May 14, 2026), it offers both capability and peace of mind. Fresh from its annual inspection and IFR certification, it is ready for its next owner. With a fuel burn under 7 gallons/hour at cruise, properly leaned, it has over 6 hours of autonomy + reserve. • ANNUAL INSPECTION APRIL 10, 2026 • C of A: VALID, CANADIAN • PRIVATE OWNER • BASED IN ST-MATHIEU-DE-BELOEIL, QUEBEC, CANADA (CSB3) • LO PRESTI WING-TIPS w/ DUAL RUNWAY LIGHTS & ANTI-COLLISION STROBE LIGHTS • FLAPS AND AILERONS GAP SEALS • MINOR DAMAGE HISTORY AT 5651.5 (LOWER RIGHT WING CRACKED /REPAIRED) • WHEEL PANTS • WINDOWS CONDITION GOOD (CLEAR, SOME CRACKS)
