Description

JKV Aviation is proud to exclusively present this Piper Arrow which has been restored, refurbished and upgraded nose-to-tail to a very high standard. A rare offering on the market of a classic 4-seat, 200HP, retractable undercarriage, variable pitch propeller aircraft widely used for personal flying, complex aircraft training, and cross-country travel that is presented in As-Good-As-NEW condition. Actually we think better than new. The quality of this aircraft inside and out must be seen to be truly appreciated.
