Detailed Description

I've owned this airplane for 11 years and have personally put more than 600 hours on her flying throughout the United States.

As an A&P/CFI owner, I've taken a hands-on approach to maintaining and improving the airplane. The objective has been to address recurring issues and upgrade components where practical so the airplane is easier and less expensive to own.

If needed, I can provide a checkout for insurance purposes or assist with the required complex-airplane endorsement.

The cosmetics are not being represented as new, but mechanically this airplane has received substantial attention and investment. For a buyer who values engine time, prop time, avionics, useful load, efficiency, and recent mechanical work over perfect paint, this M20C offers a tremendous amount of capability for the money.

Sold as-is, with fresh annual completed prior to sale.
