1978 Thorp T18Single-Engine Piston Aircraft • Crossett, AR, USA

This 1978 Thorp T18, registration N9323A, presents as a well-maintained, low-time example with only 314 hours total time on both its airframe and Lycoming O-290-D engine. The aircraft's condition inspection is current and due in July 2026, and it has benefited from a series of recent renewals including a new Sturba wood propeller with 19 hours, a new carburetor, tires, battery, fine wire plugs, fuel lines, and fuel selector. The magnetos were overhauled 27 hours ago, and engine compressions are reported as steady with very little oil consumption. The aircraft has always been hangared.

It features a new paint and interior from February 2015,...
