Interior & Exterior
- Paint Year
- 1994
- Interior Notes
- Interior is also standard-issue for the Decathlon line, though the seats were recently reupholstered and look great. The new seat foam makes for a very comfortable ride. The carpet shows some minor wear, but having been replaced several years back, is still in good condition. Overall, the interior of this aircraft looks good.
- Exterior Notes
- Overall, Decathlon N4142Y has nice ramp presence with its nice looking exterior. During the broker intake process, no damage or significant issues were noticed. Leading and trailing edges of the wings and tail look nearly perfect, with no sign of hangar rash. The aft portion of the left wing tip has a very minor scrape. The fabric looks to be in good condition, and the 1994 paint looks great for its age. Plexiglas windows are clear and while they show some age, no evidence of haze. 1994 new fabric and paint - Superflite System II in Bahama Blue, Juneau White, Insignia Red.
