New to the market is G-EKIR, a 1989 Piper Cadet — perfect for flight schools or private buyers looking for a straightforward aircraft that’s available and ready to go.
The Cadet is one of the most beginner-friendly platforms ever built. It’s simple to fly, easy to maintain, and affordable to operate — everything a new pilot or owner could want. Insurance costs are typically lower too, making it a smart first step into ownership.
Currently in active use as a dependable school aircraft, G-EKIR is powered by a Lycoming O-320 engine with 2124 hours since overhaul in 2020. A full component status report is available, clearly outlining the aircraft’s maintenance history and current operational condition.
The airframe is complemented by a stylish blue-on-white paint scheme, which continues into the cockpit with a matching grey and blue two-tone leather interior. Avionics include a Garmin GNC255A NAV/COM and Garmin GMA340 audio panel — both upgrades that enhance usability.
G-EKIR remains a fantastic example of what makes the Piper Cadet a favourite in the world of ab-initio flight training: responsive handling, low running costs, and simple, reliable systems. It’s a forgiving yet capable platform that provides a solid foundation for student pilots — and is just as rewarding for casual weekend flyers.
