Interior & Exterior

Interior Notes: Classic tan and brown two-tone interior with original upholstery in good condition. Clean side panels and intact headliner. Four-place seating configuration with rear baggage area. Some wear consistent with age but very functional. Overhead skylight windows bring in great natural light.

Exterior Notes: Traditional white and orange paint scheme with metallic gold accents. Paint is in serviceable condition with some fading and minor blemishes expected of a utility aircraft. Glass is clear and intact. Wheel pants removed for ease of maintenance. Overall, the aircraft presents well on the ramp.
