Description
N373LD is possibly the highest pedigree Meridian for sale. It has been 135 maintained for many years. No expense has been spared and all calendar items, service bulletins, and airworthiness directives have been complied with. Every PA46 Gotcha has been inspected and addressed. Even the AC line has been removed and replaced with the new and improved line - this is a significant job that nobody looks forward to doing. This is a turnkey airplane that ready to fuel up and go.
Avionics
The avionics are essentially as it was equipped new with the only addition being a GTN650XI to get a touchscreen, visual approaches, Flightstream 510, and a few other GTN vs GNS features that are nice to have. It has TCAS, Radar, ADSB-in, AP with coupled approaches and altitude pre-select. It has all the functionality you would expect and want for a high flying flight level airplane. One nice thing you will notice when reviewing logs is that the Avidyne screens aren't being sent off for repair or overhaul every year or two like so many others on the market. This has been professionally flown by experiences pilots, no hard landings here.
