Description
Casey Aviation is pleased to present this beautifully preserved 1998 Piper PA-46, a classic pressurized aircraft that combines proven performance with thoughtfully modernized avionics. Featuring a Garmin G600 flight deck, dual GTN Xi navigators, ADS-B In/Out, and a King KFC 150 autopilot, this Malibu Mirage is exceptionally well equipped for comfortable personal and cross-country travel. Powered by a FNEW Lycoming TIO-540-AE2A installed by Mead Aircraft Services in May 2006, with GAMI Injectors and a Malibu Aerospace engine cooling modification, the aircraft reflects a strong history of thoughtful upgrades and maintenance. Its original white, maroon, and gold paint and original interior have been remarkably well preserved, while a January 2026 Annual Inspection by Midwest Malibu further underscores its exceptional care.
