Detailed Description

PRISTINE inside, outside & mechanically! NO DAMAGE HISTORY-always hangared-1381 hrs. total flight time-493 hrs. SFRME installed 5/2015 due to FAA crankshaft AD-cleaned after every flight & hangared when traveling overnight-TURN KEY!   

This 2003 Cessna Turbo-charged Skylane equipped with WAAS/TAWS/ADSB- in/out, XM WX, XM MUSIC and much more has been owned, upgraded and pampered for the past 5 years by a father and son who love aviation and are OCD about their airplanes (18 ). Absolutely nothing is ever left unattended awaiting next annual. During our ownership, the plane has never been flown off-pavement, never encountered ice and always flown at 50-65% cruise. 

This plane serves multiple missions. Being turbo-charged with a 17,000' service ceiling and having 87 gallons useable fuel makes it a perfect family traveler for both regional as well as longer cross country flights. The 1002 pound useful load provides many cargo/fuel combinations. Attending Saturday morning fly-in breakfasts and maintaining instrument approach proficiency while burning 10.5 gallons per hour are luxuries of a piston powered airplane. 

If you're not instrument rated yet, this is the perfect platform to obtain the license. Its HSI plus two additional GS/LOC, two transponders, GNS 530WT, GDL 69A (yes, Sirius XM WX and XM MUSIC) make this airplane full service. Additionally, the panel mounted hard-wired dual USB connector located slightly above and right of co-pilot's yoke makes for an  uncluttered cockpit (we use a RAM co-pilot yoke mount and Apple BT iPad mini 4 along with ForeFlight to obtain ADSB-IN, SVT, Garmin approach plates and WX redundancy). Both the Apple BT iPad mini 4 & RAM MOUNT remain with the aircraft along with model specific center console located between pilot & co-pilot's seat. GPSS steering, paint matched Vortex Generators, 4 place LEMO and factory dual cord headset plugs are also installed.

The plane is not a hangar queen. It is flown regularly (lucky to have both ILS and RNAV approaches within 10 miles of its home airport). A battery minder connector provides easy access and full battery charge upon engine crank. The engine heater and cowl plugs are wonderful for full time winter warmth. We also heat the interior too! All logbooks are complete from date of manufacture and available in the logs section of the ad.

This is a "showroom" quality aircraft serving many needs. It's our family's 4th Skylane in 35 years of flying single engine piston airplanes & helicopters. However, over time, needs change. We've already purchased a TKS equipped Cessna Turbo Stationair. Many fun memories and accomplishments will continue to be made by the new owner of this beautiful bird. Feel free to call, text or email with questions or concerns. Plane is hangared & located in Collegedale, TN (KFGU) 10 miles east of Chattanooga TN (KCHA).

We truly don't believe you'll find better 2003 Turbo Skylane!
