SOLD - This 1969 Piper Cherokee 140 is the first year model from the factory with the upgraded standard T instrument panel, throttle quadrant, and switch panel cluster. The aircraft has been hangar kept and rarely flown by the same owner the last 27 years. Since that time the plane has flown less than 150 hours due to owner’s schedule, yet has been continually upgraded and maintained with periodic annuals. The airplane is in excellent condition, extensive annual inspection just performed in May 2022 and the Pitot Static IFR Certification performed in May 2022 as well. Compression and oil analysis all good. The exterior paint is in very good condition, Interior upholstery and plastics trim are in excellent condition. The windows are new 1/4 replacement plexiglass. The aircraft log books are complete and original since new. Included with the aircraft records are five 3 inch binders with complete supporting documentation. Since the annual inspection the airplane has been flown to our location in Livermore CA, just under an hour flight.

About the Piper Cherokee 140

The Cherokee 140 (PA-28-140) is the cheapest way into Piper ownership — the original 1964 entry-level Cherokee with a 140-150 hp Lycoming O-320. Two-plus-two seating (the rear is small) and a 110-knot cruise; widely used as a basic trainer and time-builder. Affordable, simple, but limited useful load with four people.

Produced 1964–1977.
