1976 Piper Cherokee 140Single-Engine Piston Aircraft

This 1976 Piper Cherokee 140 (N8877E) presents as a well-equipped example with notable upgrades, showing 6,730.8 total airframe hours. The aircraft features an upgraded 180hp Lycoming O-360-A4M engine with 1,779.1 hours since overhaul and strong compression readings across all cylinders (73/76/78/76). The panel is dominated by modern Garmin avionics including a GTN 650 navigator and Dynon Skyview HDX display system with full engine monitoring capabilities, though notably lacks an autopilot.

Recent investments include a brand new interior installed in 2025, complementing the aircraft's current annual inspection completed in June 2025. The 180hp engine upgrade from the original 140hp configuration provides enhanced performance while maintaining the Cherokee's reputation as a capable trainer and personal aircraft. With 1,779.1 hours on the engine against a 2,000-hour TBO, this example offers substantial remaining time before major powerplant service.
