Description
Imagine an aircraft that has been highly updated to the latest available avionics, speed mods, cosmetic mods, sound reducing side windows, new Rosen sun visors, and power outlets for Starlink Mini, and Winblade Inogen Aviator oxygen generator. Imagine an owner who said hell to the expense and optioned the Garmin Yaw Damper when replacing the autopilot with the latest GFC500 from Garmin. While giving the panel the full treatment with touchscreen GTN750xi GPS/NAV/COM, backup GI 275 Attitude Director Indicator. Et Cetera (see more below) Imagine an aircraft that has been maintained literally without reference to expense, where every conceivable maintenance action has been undertaken including recent top overhauls, turbos and most accessories. (all invoices available) Imagine purchasing an aircraft where there is nothing to spend, where trips can be confidently planned with the safety of two counter-rotating engines (no critical engine) which are turbo-charged for nearly 200 knots true airspeed at altitude. Imagine an owner-flown aircraft that has always been sympathetically operated for maximum longevity. An aircraft that has taken well over a year offline to bring the aircraft up to the demanding standards of this obsessive owner. This is something that is very often underrated with owning aircraft! Here is your opportunity to purchase a piston twin for business or pleasure and start enjoying the benefits from the get go. AIR CONDITIONING which has just been overhauled. The owner has decided to upgrade to a brand new, faster aircraft. The aircraft has now completed a comprehensive 100 Hourly Inspection at Smart Air Maintenance, Albury NSW. The elevator jack-screw was found to be binding ever so slightly so the owner said, "replace with new!" which has been accomplished. The aircraft is currently hangared and based at Swan Hill, Vic, which is a dry inland location. Please call for component runout times and more information.
