Offered at an excellent price point is this Piper Arrow II. Perfect for anyone looking to step up into complex aircraft ownership. Powered by the Lycoming IO-360, this engine has 1670 hours since a Norvic overhaul in 2015 and the prop was overhauled last year just 70 hours ago. Fresh out of annual inspection this Arrow is ready to go. The Arrow II is also a popular choice for both training and touring - they are capable machines with cruise speeds in the 140's and great for getting from A to B.

Thats what makes this Arrow II so appealing for the private buyer. However the aircraft, as it is, can also be seen as a great value complex aircraft with everything you need and no need to make any further investments. The maintenance records are available on request, maintained under CAMO at present. If you're looking for an honest, ready to fly Arrow with an in-time engine - GY is your answer.
