Description
Detailed Description This 2007 Piper Meridian PA-46-500TP is well-equipped and positioned for its next owner. Outfitted with the highly desirable MT 5-blade composite propeller, this aircraft delivers improved performance, efficiency, and reduced vibration. Certified for Flight Into Known Icing (FIKI), it offers enhanced operational capability across a wider range of conditions. Vortex generators further improve low-speed handling and safety margins, while the integrated fire detection system adds an additional layer of safety. The panel features the Avidyne Entegra flight deck, paired with the Avidyne EX5000 MFD, delivering a clean, intuitive interface with excellent situational awareness. This is complemented by dual Garmin GTN 650 GPS/Nav/Comms, providing modern navigation capability and redundancy. Partnership is available, with the current owner open to selling a 50% share of the aircraft for $600,000. This presents an opportunity to access turbine performance and capability at a significantly reduced capital outlay, while still benefiting from the full utility of the Meridian platform.

Finished in a sharp Matterhorn White upper over a deep red lower, accented by pumice metallic and metallic black onyx striping, the exterior presents with a clean, ramp-appealing look with near perfect paint condition. A vent/overflow reroute modification has also been incorporated to help minimize belly staining and reduce ongoing maintenance.
Modifications
Powered by the proven Pratt & Whitney PT6A-42A, this Meridian delivers the reliability, smooth operation, and performance the platform is known for. Paired with the upgraded MT 5-blade composite propeller, the aircraft benefits from improved climb performance, enhanced cruise efficiency, and noticeably reduced vibration and cabin noise. The result is a more refined flying experience with performance gains you can feel from takeoff through cruise, making it an ideal fit for both owner-operators and mission-driven flying.
Avionics
The avionics suite is centered around the Avidyne Entegra flight deck, paired with the Avidyne EX5000 multi-function display, delivering a clean and highly intuitive interface. The system is integrated with dual Garmin GTN 650 GPS/Nav/Comms, providing modern navigation capability and strong redundancy. An integrated Meggitt Magic 1500 IFCS enhances stability and reduces pilot workload, while weather awareness is supported by an L3 WX-500 Stormscope and a BendixKing RDR-2000VP weather radar, giving the pilot multiple layers of real-time weather insight.
