Interior
Exterior is in nice condition. Paint shows significant depth and shine, and it has stayed that way since it is always hangared. The exterior has very little in the way of blemishes or paint damage - just the typical scratches and minor chips around the cowling latches. No hail damage, no hangar rash. Plexiglas windows are bright and clear. For dozens of detailed images of the aircraft, and deep specs, please visit: https://partner91.com/n15040-piper-pa-32-300/
