1979 Piper Cherokee 6/300

Description

• Why the 1979 Model Year Is Special 1979 was the final year of the Cherokee Six, and it's the year enthusiasts seek out: the fuel tanks are tied together, making fuel management dramatically simpler than the four-separate-tank earlier airplanes (which require burning the inboards first and careful tank-switching). Add the desirable forward-facing seating with the hard-to-find 7th "jump" seat in the middle row, and you have a true seven-place cabin that's ideal for family, friends, and cargo.
• Panel & Avionics This airplane's panel is a standout. It has been upgraded to a powder-coated aluminum panel — no plastic — in 10/10 condition, and it's loaded with a clean, capable Garmin IFR stack:
• Garmin GNS 430W (Com/Nav/GPS, color)
• Garmin G5 electronic attitude indicator
• Garmin GMA 350 audio panel
• Garmin GTX-345 transponder with ADS-B (In & Out) and Flightstream
• Electronics International MVP-50 certified engine monitor
• Collins VHF-251 digital (2nd Com)
• Collins VIR-351 digital (2nd Nav)
• Collins DME
• Century III-C autopilot with altitude hold — please note: the autopilot is currently in need of servicing. We'd rather tell you up front than have you find out later. Everything else in the panel works great.

• Condition — Straight Talk We're pricing and presenting this airplane honestly. The interior is a 5/10 and the exterior/paint is a 5/10 — both are serviceable and presentable, with room for a new owner to make them their own. Mechanically and avionically, this airplane punches well above those cosmetic numbers.
