Description
I bought this airplane in Oct 2025 to learn to fly in. I thought it would take me a year to a year and a half. I got my certificate in two days shy of five months. When looking for an airplane I chose this one due to the way it was taken care of, the mid engine time, and the descent avionics. It has always been hangared. The engine was overhauled 8/18/22 by Western Skyways, with Gold Seal Warranty. Since overhaul the last owner flew it about 650 hrs and I put another 85 or so. The oil has always been changed between 35 and 50 hours with oil samples being sent in for analysis. I really thought I would keep this airplane till I quit flying but my mission has changed and I really am needing more speed for long trips. It is due for its annual in June. When I bought it, it had a current static inspection. I have not had it re-inspected as I am not IFR yet. I am a motivated seller so make an offer.
