This 1961 Piper Comanche 250 (N7522P) presents as a well-maintained example with recent major investments, showing just 25 hours since a complete engine overhaul by Signature Engines in 2021. The Lycoming O-540-A1D5 now carries zero-time status with 1975 hours remaining to TBO, paired with a freshly overhauled McCauley 3-blade aluminum propeller. The airframe shows 4,656 total hours with complete original logs and only a 1991 rudder replacement noted in its clean damage history.

The aircraft features Knots to U speed modifications and displays in excellent cosmetic condition with recent exterior paint in white/blue/gold trim and an upgraded tan cloth/vinyl interior. Avionics include an IFR-capable panel with a Garmin 430 (non-WAAS, display needs repair), dual King KX 155 nav/coms, STEC 30 autopilot, and ADS-B out compliance. With a 1,093 lb useful load and 60-gallon fuel capacity, this Comanche 250 delivers strong performance for cross-country missions. A fresh annual was completed in April 2024 with airworthiness extending through April 2025.
