Airframe

N373LD is possibly the highest pedigree Meridian for sale. It has been 135 maintained for many years.

No expense has been spared and all calendar items, service bulletins, and airworthiness directives have been complied with.

Every PA46 Gotcha has been inspected and addressed.

Even the AC line has been removed and replaced with the new and improved line - this is a significant job that nobody looks forward to doing.

This is a turnkey airplane that ready to fuel up and go.

Engine

This engine is overpowered for this airframe. It never runs out of power and doesn't need to activate an Inertial Separator to attain a ram air rise. It is the same as operating with the separator always open providing FOD and Ice prevention with no concerns about having enough power.

In cruise it is nearly impossible to reach the ITT limit and in practice we have never come close to the Cruise ITT limit.

Every Engine accessory has been overhauled, inspected, or replaced according to calendar or time in service intervals in accordance with 135 Requirements. Engine hoses, Belts, etc... are all within calendar time

Avionics

The avionics are essentially as it was equipped new with the only addition being a GTN650XI to get a touchscreen, visual approaches, Flightstream 510, and a few other GTN vs GNS features that are nice to have.

It has TCAS, Radar, ADSB-in, AP with coupled approaches and altitude pre-select. It has all the functionality you would expect and want for a high flying flight level airplane.

One nice thing you will notice when reviewing logs is that the Avidyne screens aren't being sent off for repair or overhaul every year or two like so many others on the market. This has been professionally flown by experiences pilots, no hard landings here.

Interior

• Interior and Exterior are in good serviceable condition.
• Paint is shiny and interior shows nicely.
• Boots are in excellent shape and inflate/deflate nicely
