The panel is equipped with dual Garmin G3X Touch displays, GTN 750XI/650XI GPS units, GFC500 autopilot, GTX345R transponder with ADS-B, and Smart Glide emergency descent system. Additional features include Garmin G5 backups, an Alpha Systems AOA, wing/nose cameras, and an auxiliary battery. The interior boasts AMA custom leather front seats, Atlee Dodge folding rear seats, BAS shoulder harnesses, and extended baggage tie-downs. With all inspections current (annual due February 2025) and complete logs available, this 3,525 lb MTOW aircraft offers a 1,449 lb useful load, making it an exceptional performer for backcountry or float operations.
