Seller's notes

Seitz Aviation proudly presents N4999T, affectionately known as "Jewels," arguably one of the finest Cessna Skywagon amphibs on the market today! You would be hard-pressed to find a nicer example! Meticulously maintained, lovingly cared for, and truly babied by a husband-and-wife pilot couple, this exceptional aircraft reflects an extraordinary level of pride in ownership. No expense has been spared in its care, maintenance, and upgrades. Featuring low-time Aerocet 3400 amphibious floats with just 165 hours, WingX wing extensions, vortex generators, and a freshly overhauled 285 HP turbonormalized Continental IO-520-D engine and MT propeller, both with only 7 hours since overhaul, Jewels is equipped for serious backcountry and amphibious adventures. The impressive avionics package includes a Garmin GTN 750, dual Garmin G5s, GTX 345 ADS-B In/Out, JPI EDM830, and S-TEC 50 autopilot. With only 4,145 total airframe hours, a beautifully appointed 9/10 interior and exterior, and a long history of hangar storage, this Skywagon stands out from the crowd. Whether exploring remote mountain airstrips or pristine alpine lakes, Jewels offers an incredible combination of performance, capability, and pride of ownership. A rare opportunity to own a truly turnkey, extensively upgraded Skywagon amphibian that has been cared for with exceptional attention to detail and is ready for its next adventure!
