NAVAJO CHIEFTAIN

This 1977 Piper Navajo Chieftain (N660AC) presents as a well-maintained twin with 11,600 total airframe hours, featuring a comprehensive avionics suite and recent refurbishments. The aircraft is powered by twin turbocharged Lycoming TIO-540-J2BD engines (350 HP each) with 1,660 hours SMOH (2011 overhauls) and paired with Hartzell three-blade aluminum props at 850 hours SMOH. Notable modifications include BLR vortex generators for increased MTOW, auxiliary fuel tanks adding 54 gallons capacity for extended range, and nose gear quick release. The panel boasts dual Aspen EFD1000 PRO PFDs backed by a Sandia AI and full six-pack, Avidyne IFD540/Garmin GTN 650 GPS units, S-TEC System 65 autopilot with yaw damper, and complete ADS-B/TCAS/TAWS systems.

The aircraft underwent a full refurbishment in 2008 by Rose Aircraft Services, including exterior paint and a complete interior refresh featuring eight-place seating with sheepskin crew seats and leather passenger accommodations. Operational highlights include FIKI capability, oxygen system (currently inop due to out-of-date bottle), and cabin amenities like USB outlets and 110V inverter. While the first airframe logbook is missing, records date back to 1987 at 3,647 hours. Currently operating under Part 91 with an annual inspection due July 2025, this Chieftain has been consistently hangared and shows careful ownership.
