Airframe

The exterior is painted in an overall white with dark and light blue stripes from front to rear and then accented with gold feathered stripes on the fuselage and the tail. The exterior paint still has a very good gloss, and it shines like new. It still has the classic look with new features throughout. It has the standard tricycle retractable landing gear. The window and the cockpit windscreen are green tinted and in great shape.  When not flying it has been hangared for over twenty-five years.

Engines / Mods / Prop

The IO-470L Continental Gold Medallion engines were installed new in 1995 a few hours apart from each other. Both engine lower ends were disassembled, inspected, and built up by the G&N overhaul shop in 1995 due to a prop strike 851 hour previous. The original two bladed propellers were replaced with new three bladed propellers at that time.

Interior / Exterior

Installed 200 flight hours previous in January 2013 The interior has light tan leather seat covers on all six adjustable seats. The side walls have been re-covered with new light tan and brown side wall material that match the tan seat covers. The side wall and overhead panels and fixtures have all been redone with new material and are in very good condition. The upgraded carpets are all very good condition in a matching light brown color.  There are four head set jacks in adjacent to rear passenger seats for communication purposes.
