The 1997 Fairchild SA227-DC Metro 23, registration LV-ZXA, is a versatile and mission-ready twin-engine turboprop configured for passenger, cargo, executive, or aeromedical operations. Powered by two Honeywell TPE331-12UHR-701G engines and maintained under a comprehensive inspection program, the aircraft presents with 13,429.9 total airframe hours and 14,307 cycles. Recent maintenance includes completion of the annual inspection and six-phase inspection program in April 2026.
The aircraft features a fully convertible cabin accommodating up to 19 passengers, a 13-seat executive layout, or dedicated cargo and medevac configurations, including certified dual-stretcher capability and medical electrical provisions. Avionics include an S-TEC ST-593 autopilot, KLN-90B GPS, RDR-2000 weather radar, dual Collins TDR-90 transponders, GPWS, and integrated EFB connectivity. Additional highlights include Starlink satellite internet, onboard Wi-Fi, pressurized cabin, vapor-cycle air conditioning, and proven Part 121 operational history.
Both engines offer meaningful remaining time before overhaul, with approximately 1,216 hours remaining on Engine #1 and 917 hours remaining on Engine #2. Combined with current inspections and operational flexibility, LV-ZXA represents an attractive platform for regional operators, cargo carriers, special mission operators, and aeromedical service providers seeking a reliable and operationally ready aircraft.
