- 2024 OSHKOSH award winning Piper Aztec, judged best contemporary vintage Piper Twin. NEW TO MARKET is this well maintained, low airframe and engine time 1968 Piper Aztec PA-23-250 (D model) with head-turning ramp appeal. The paint and leather interior are in excellent condition and the plastic has been recently refurbished. The panel has an impressive carbon fiber overlay with new placards and the windows are clear without hazing. Not only is this a beautiful example of this make and model, but it delivers impressive performance with 164 knots true with a useful load of nearly 2100 lbs. Finally, a Garmin panel, a very capable STEC 55X autopilot, perfect condition deice boots, heated props, built in oxygen, etc make this Aztec a very desirable easy to operate twin.
- Fresh annual as of October 2024.
- Times listed will change as this Aztec is flown approximately 100 hours per year.
- I am willing to TRADE for a cabin class twin, preferably pressurized.
