1968 Piper ArrowSingle-Engine Piston Aircraft

This 1968 Piper Arrow (N8445J) presents as a well-maintained example with recent avionics and interior upgrades. The airframe shows 6,096 total hours with an engine showing 776 hours since its last overhaul in 2002 (following a 1995 prop strike), and a McCauley 3-blade propeller with 510 hours since its 2009 installation after another prop strike. Notably, the aircraft has undergone two gear-up landings (2005 and 2009), both properly repaired and documented in the logs. The panel features modern Garmin equipment including dual G5s, a GMC507 autopilot, GNX375 GPS/transponder, and a vacuum system removal in 2023 for enhanced reliability.

The aircraft received a comprehensive interior refresh in 2023-2024 with new Airtex seats, carpet, and side panels, complementing its described "very good paint." With a useful load of 993 lbs (705 lbs with full fuel) and four-place seating, this Arrow is equipped for both IFR and VFR operations. Recent maintenance includes a December 2024 annual, 2022 landing gear power pack overhaul, and new oil cooler hoses. The compression readings (77/83/76/72) and complete logs support its operational readiness. Buyers should review the detailed log entries regarding the prop strikes and gear incidents for full operational history.
