Overview

This is one of the nicest piston Beavers available!  There is not a lower time Beaver listed for sale.  You have to see it to appreciate it.  This aircraft has been well maintained and has excellent records of the maintenance and owner history.
Last year a sale fell apart due to paperwork regarding the up-gross kit installed.  The owner didn’t want to take any chances and likes to sleep at night, therefore, took it to the shop to make sure everything is clean, legal, fresh with no secrets.  There will be no issue purchasing this aircraft or hidden headaches as the owner has spent much time and money to make sure the next owner can easily take possession of this aircraft without worrying.
Annual Inspection was completed in January 19, 2018.
