Description
Detailed Description This Schweizer S300C has undergone a complete factory refurbishment, delivering the confidence of a renewed aircraft with the proven reliability of a trusted platform. Featuring an overhauled engine, new main rotor blades, new tail rotor blades, overhauled gearboxes, fresh 12- and 24-month inspections, new glass, and a beautifully updated interior with fresh exterior paint, this aircraft is turnkey and mission-ready. N93SZ represents a rare opportunity to own a like-new Schweizer built for years of dependable operation - all for a fraction of the price of new. This Schweizer 269C is being offered through the Schweizer Factory Refurbishment Program and will be delivered following an extensive frame-off restoration. Highlights of the refurbishment include: - New main rotor blades - New tail rotor blades - New windshield and door glass - Completely new interior - New exterior paint with buyer-selected colors, subject to production status - Buyer-selected avionics configuration - Freshly overhauled engine - Overhauled main rotor gearbox - Overhauled tail rotor gearbox - Overhauled landing gear dampers - All scheduled inspections completed through the 1,200-hour inspection - Complete aircraft rigging and factory flight testing - Schweizer 6-month / 500-hour warranty This is an opportunity to acquire a factory-refurbished Schweizer 269C configured to the new owner's specifications, combining the proven 269C platform with extensively renewed major components, a fresh engine and drivetrain, new rotor blades, modern avionics options, and factory warranty support. This Schweizer 269C is undergoing a comprehensive frame-off restoration by Schweizer, returning the aircraft to a like-new condition. The helicopter is completely disassembled to the bare airframe, with the frame, cabin structure, landing gear, controls, and associated components individually inspected, refinished, repaired, or replaced as required. The aircraft is then reassembled with renewed hardware, hoses, finishes, and components as applicable, followed by complete rigging, inspections, and factory flight testing prior to delivery.
Modifications
The aircraft will be delivered with a freshly overhauled Lycoming engine, providing the new owner with a zero-time-since-overhaul powerplant and maximum available operating life. The engine installation is completed as part of the refurbishment process, with associated engine systems, accessories, hoses, and installation components inspected and renewed as required.
Avionics
The avionics package can be configured to the new owner's preferred setup prior to completion. Whether the mission calls for a straightforward VFR panel, modern Garmin glass avionics, ADS-B capability, GPS navigation, or a more extensively equipped training or operational configuration, the panel can be tailored to the owner's requirements and budget.
Recommended avionics upgrades
No IFR GPS navigator is listed — a GTN 650Xi is the standard entry point for WAAS/LPV capability.
See prices & suppliers ›No autopilot is listed — a GFC 500 (or S-TEC 3100 / Trio Pro Pilot where the GFC isn't STC'd) adds a modern digital autopilot with envelope protection, subject to model approval.
See prices & suppliers ›Suggestions are based on the panel described in this listing; verify STC approval for this make/model before any installation.
