Description
N91BP is a 1978 Piper Navajo C/R with the Colemill conversion and a heavily upgraded Garmin panel. With approximately 7,200 hours total time, it has been actively flown and maintained rather than sitting. The panel features a 10-inch G600TXi, GTN 750Xi and 650Xi, Garmin EIS, GI 275 standby, and a GFC 600 autopilot with yaw trim and rudder bias. Dual G5s are installed on the copilot side. The airplane also has winglets, a six-place executive-style cabin, and complete logbooks. The Colemill conversion makes this a particularly capable Navajo, with the speed, cabin space, payload, and baggage capacity to be a genuinely useful cross-country airplane. It is a good option for someone looking for more capability than a typical piston single or light twin without moving into turbine acquisition and operating costs. Free transition training will be included with the sale to help the new owner get comfortable and proficient in the airplane.
