Description
Detailed Description A beautifully maintained turbo-charged Piper Seneca II with 3,700 hours total time. The interior and exterior of the aircraft are in such great shape that you can't believe it is all original. The engines are high times but they are making great compressions and the cylinders were all overhauled around 600 hours ago. Propellers are freshly overhauled with the right propeller receiving new blades at the overhaul. An extensive annual was completed in January making sure this aircraft is ready for the next owner. Digital logs available upon request. 3,711 TTIS Annual due January 2027 ELT Battery due January 2028 Pitot/Transponder due January 2028 Useful Load: 1445 lbs Deice System Wings, Tail, and Propellers Long Range Fuel Tanks Club Seating
