Comments
PIPER AEROSTAR SUPERSTAR 700
240+KTAS in pressurised comfort in the Flight Levels.
Most after-market Machen Inc. 'Superstar' factory options including 5.5PSI cabin pressurisation and auxiliary fuel tank! Low airframe time with excellent engine and prop time remaining. Normal (private) Category. This example has always been operated privately and I'm only the fourth owner (Commercial Pilot). Always owner flown. Always hangared and meticulously maintained. It's flying beautifully.
Dual GARMIN GTNs with updated remote audio panel and 6-pin plus GA audio outlets, USB chargers,
GARMIN radar on GTN display, ADS-B, Traffic Collision and Avoidance Display displayed on GTN and prop sync. Six seats including middle row swivel seat and pull-out table. (I usually have the middle row removed.)
I originally purchased this Aerostar for a specific 700nm mission. It's been perfect for that. This is a reluctant sale because that mission has gone. Purchasing a later model aircraft with similar capability will cost well in excess of $1M! This terrific Aerostar is priced to sell and represents amazing value.
Aerostars are fantastic to fly. Owners are a supportive community. Aerostar Corp. and Machen Inc. are active companies with amazing knowledge and support if required. They are only a phone call away - including the CEO! You won't get that with any other manufacturer.
