AirframeOwnership History:
The previous owner had the aircraft for almost three decades and took very good care of it. He had the aircraft completely gone through in 2018 including replacing the wing spars with new from Airframe Components by Williams, Inc as a precaution with Piper SB 1244B. In recent years, the aircraft’s flight time has lowered, and they decided to sell so the next owner can cherish it as much as they did.
Damage History:
The aircraft had a landing incident in 1979 when it veered off of the runway to avoid a plane landing in the opposite direction. The leading edge of the wings were damaged and repaired. See 337 form for details.
Logbook Condition:

Year Painted2005
Exterior8/10: The aircraft was stripped and painted in 2005 in a white and blue Piper Scheme. The exterior presents in great condition, with a glossy, well-maintained paint finish and clean, straight body lines throughout; reflecting careful ownership and consistent upkeep.
Interior7/10: Blue w/ cloth seats. Though original, the interior presents itself in good overall condition with well-preserved materials and a classic, period-correct look. Normal wear is evident on seating and trim, but everything remains clean, functional, and representative of careful use over time.
