1977 Piper Archer IISingle-Engine Piston Aircraft

This 1977 Piper Archer II presents a well-maintained example of the popular 180hp Lycoming-powered trainer with only 8,700 total hours on the airframe. The engine was rebuilt in 2015 by Penn Yan and shows just 200 hours since major overhaul, well below its 2,000-hour TBO, while the propeller was recently overhauled by East Coast Propeller Services with zero hours since service. The aircraft features a functional wing-leveler autopilot (Piper Autocontrol IIIB) and electric trim system, complemented by a solid avionics suite including dual KX 170B nav/comms with localizer/glideslope capability, Narco DME, and compliant ADS-B Out via a Uavionix tail beacon.

The Archer II benefits from a fresh annual completed in August 2024, with complete and well-organized Aerotech AdLog maintenance records showing all ADs complied with. The exterior features Whelen Orion 600 LED lighting and wheel pants, while the interior shows in great condition with vinyl seats, new carpet with Ensolite soundproofing, and a Sigtronics 4-way intercom. Practical upgrades include an EZ Heat engine preheater, Kool Scoop vent, and new tires. The combination of low-time powerplant, recent prop overhaul, and current maintenance makes this a turnkey aircraft for training or personal travel.
