1978 Piper SeminoleMulti-Engine Piston Aircraft • Pikeville, KY, USA

Here is a 1978 Piper PA-44 Seminole, registration N272GT, serial number 44-7995054, being offered for USD 165,000.

Notably, logbooks from 1978 to 1997 are missing, and the aircraft has a damage history including prior prop strikes—all of which are reflected in the asking price. It is presented as a functional, working twin rather than a showpiece.

The powerplants consist of Lycoming O-360 series engines, with the right engine at approximately 1,800 SMOH...
