1975 Grumman/American General AA5 TravelerSingle-Engine Piston Aircraft

This 1975 Grumman American AA5 Traveler (N1337R) presents as a restoration project with 4,777 total airframe hours and a Lycoming O-320 engine showing 1,186 hours since major overhaul. The aircraft has been stored in a Placerville hangar for 20 years, with its last flight occurring 16 years ago and engine operation 10 years ago. While the engine turns over with compression, it hasn't been started recently. The airframe retains its original interior needing tidying and faded but serviceable exterior paint.

The aircraft features a complete but outdated avionics suite including a King KX 170B nav/com and Narco AT 50 transponder. Power comes from a fixed-pitch Hartzell propeller with matching 1,186 hours since overhaul. Notable features include 40-gallon fuel capacity, new (uninstalled) seat covers, and an oil filter conversion. With an annual inspection due and requiring recommissioning work, this project aircraft would suit a buyer prepared to invest time in returning it to airworthy condition. The seller notes it could potentially annual and fly with proper attention.
