Propeller
This well-preserved 1973 Piper PA-23-250 Aztec E presents an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a structurally exceptional, corrosion-free example with outstanding provenance. With a total time of 5,876 hours, the aircraft has been hangared continuously since 1980 and owned by a single California-based owner for over four decades, reflecting consistent care and responsible operation. The airframe remains highly original and remarkably clean, showing no signs of corrosion and maintaining excellent structural integrity throughout. A defining feature is its full dual-system configuration, including dual pitot systems, dual brakes, and a complete co-pilot instrument panel-enhancing redundancy, safety, and training capability. Recently flown from California to Florida in March 2026, the aircraft demonstrates proven reliability, proper rigging, and stable flight characteristics typical of the Aztec platform. Fresh annual completed.
