Description
$179,950 - OBO This aircraft has been meticulously maintained with a focus on mechanical condition, reliability, and safety. Major aircraft systems have been overhauled or extensively addressed, with considerable investment made in the engine, firewall-forward components, landing gear, hydraulics, flight controls, structure, and propeller. The result is an aircraft that has been maintained to be flown and enjoyed, not simply made attractive for sale. It is always hangared, even on overnights. The Commander 112TCA combines a remarkably spacious two-door cabin with excellent stability, handling, and comfort. Its wide cabin, trailing-link landing gear, and exceptional flight characteristics make it a true pleasure to fly, particularly on longer cross-country trips. With factory turbocharging, the 112TCA also provides the flexibility to take advantage of higher altitudes and offers substantially better capability when operating from high-elevation airports and in higher density-altitude conditions. For the pilot who values comfort, handling, cross-country capability, and the mechanical condition of the aircraft beneath the panel, this 112TCA offers an uncommon combination. Remarks: Last Annual May 2026 IFR Certification October 2025 Complete log books No Corrosion The airplane flies extremely well and has had extensive attention to the mechanical items that matter. Everything mechanically and throughout the interior functions as it should. Damage History Minor damage history from a gear-up landing in July 2019. Official FAA report classifying the event as "Minor Damage" will be provided. The fuselage was unaffected and repairs were properly completed. Included with the aircraft sale are the items below. $7,000+ value. • Redline Aviation Sidewinder electric folding aircraft tug - $3,250 new • Black Max Engine Saver Dehydrator $655 new • Three aircraft jacks - approximately $1,500 new • Tail stand - approximately $500 new • Additional aircraft tools, parts and accessories - $1,500+ • California Tools air compressor • Shauer JAC2512 external power supply • AeroCreeper Original • Kennon window shades and plugs • Step ladder • Small hangar refrigerator • Garmin 430W Garmin card reader • Garmin 430W Jeppesen chart card reader This aircraft has not simply been made attractive with avionics upgrades while major mechanical work was deferred.
