About the Grumman AA-5B Tiger

The Grumman AA-5B Tiger is the fast, fun four-seater of the family — a 180 hp low-wing single that cruises around 140 kt on modest fuel, with light, responsive controls and a distinctive sliding canopy. Bonded-aluminium construction keeps it slick and light. The Tiger is one of the best speed- and fun-per-dollar four-seaters in the fixed-gear class, competing with the Cessna 172/177 and Piper Archer.

Buying a Used Grumman AA-5B Tiger

When buying a Grumman AA-5B Tiger, the biggest value drivers are engine time since overhaul, maintenance-record completeness, damage history and avionics.

What to check before buying

  • Engine time to overhaul — hours and years remaining drive price more than total airframe time.
  • Logbook completeness — continuous, gap-free maintenance records protect value.
  • Damage history — any prior accident or incident; cross-check the registration against accident databases.
  • Avionics — a modern glass panel vs legacy steam gauges materially changes price.
  • Pre-buy inspection — always commission an independent inspection by a type-experienced mechanic before money changes hands.
