Spring is here and Dawn Patrol Season has started - it's time to get up into the air!
And no better way to do that than in this classic aircraft, beautifully restored from the ground up. It is a flying piece of history - in 1948 the Vagabond series saved Piper from bankruptcy after the war.
Type certificated without an electrical system, but it's simple to start. Chock the wheels, set the throttle to idle, prime, and hand prop. The whole process can be learned in under 20 minutes.
No Mode C transponder or ADSB to fool with. Connect your handheld to the external antenna and you're all set for entry into the Class D.
Incredibly affordable: at $43,000.00 you won't find a better fully restored LSA aircraft for less. And sips just 4.1 GPH making the $100 hamburger a reality again!
Ready to fly! A fresh annual inspection is being wrapped up this month.

Check out the Piper branded gauges! They're a great detail.
The owner ran an external antenna to use with a handheld so you can get in and out of controlled airspace. No ADS-B or transponder so you've got to avoid the Bravos
The plane has been wired for lighting and such, so no need to run wiring for the night upgrade, but the new owner would need to add those components and a battery
