About the Piper Malibu
The Piper PA-46 Malibu is the pressurised, cabin-class single that anchors Piper's M-class line — a sleek six-seater offering airliner-style cabin comfort in a piston or turboprop single. The family spans the original Continental-powered Malibu, the Lycoming-powered Mirage, the unpressurised Matrix, the current M350, and the PT6A turboprops: the Meridian/M500, the bigger-wing M600 and the latest M700 Fury. JetProp conversions turn piston Malibus into turboprops.

Buying a Used Piper Malibu
Every Piper Malibu faces a mandatory 2,000-hour overhaul, so the single biggest factor in used price is how much time remains before that overhaul is due — a fresh-overhaul airframe can be worth a large share of the $35,000 overhaul cost more than one approaching its limit.
What to check before buying
- Time to overhaul — hours and years remaining to the 2,000-hour limit; this dominates resale value more than total time.
- Logbook completeness — continuous, gap-free maintenance records; missing logs cut value and complicate financing.
- Damage history — any prior accident, hard landing or blade strike; cross-check the registration against accident databases.
- Avionics — a glass panel vs steam gauges materially changes price.
- Pre-buy inspection — always commission an independent inspection by a type-experienced mechanic before money changes hands.
