Sporting a smooth running 250HP engine, this wonderful flying carpet has about 1150 hours SMOH, and is also equipped with a 3 bladed propeller.
Propeller
This is one of the most well-kept Comanche's you'll ever see. It has been known as "The Creampuff" - the white labeling on the instrument panel remains original, bright and unblemished. A recent extensive annual has reset all of the applicable AD's to zero, including the tail, landing gear, bungees and more.
Interior
A smooth and practically new red leather interior built for your comfort.
