Description
89P is a very special aircraft. I have had the honor of flying and tending to her for the last 20 years, and now I am seeking her next steward. Beautiful, honest, and reliable, you can expect that she will carry her 1200 lb useful load at 155 knots on 13.5 gallons per hour - all in style and comfort.
Engine
Engine has just 155 hours since overhaul to NEW limits with NEW cylinders. Clean engine, compressions all in the upper 70's. Prop has less than 10 hours since overhaul.
Interior
Paint looks great. Repainted long ago, but it doesn't look it (always hangared). Lots of shine, full coverage. Has small nicks and scratches, but overall looks very nice. Expect compliments at every fuel stop! The interior is also in great shape (except the carpet, which shows some wear - but still serviceable with no stains). The seats were re-upholstered about 4 years ago, with less than 100 hours of use. Headliner and trims all very nice. Windows are nice, extra thick, tinted green.
