1978 Piper Arrow IIISingle-Engine Piston Aircraft

This 1978 Piper Arrow III (N3661M) presents as a well-maintained example with 2,996 total airframe hours and a Lycoming IO-360-C1C6 engine showing 1,678 hours since major overhaul. The aircraft features the desirable semi-tapered wing design and has spent its life in California before relocating to Washington, where it has been hangared. The engine received an IRAN at 670 SMOH in 1999 due to a case crack, with recent compression readings showing strong cylinder health at 74-76 across all cylinders. A McCauley B2D34C213 propeller accompanies the powerplant with 1,682 hours since its last overhaul.

The avionics suite includes a Garmin 430W with glideslope capability, Garmin 340 audio panel, and ADS-B Out compliance via a Tail Beacon, making it VFR-ready with solid navigation tools. Additional features include 72-gallon fuel capacity for extended range, updated wingtips with integrated landing lights, and a useful load of 993 lbs. The seller describes it as a "great economical X/C machine" with digital logbooks available for review. With its low-time airframe and recent hangar storage, this Arrow III appears positioned as a cost-effective retractable option for cross-country flying.
