This 1979 Grumman/American General AA5B Tiger (N28996) presents as a well-equipped example with modern avionics and recent maintenance. The airframe shows 3,477 total hours with a Lycoming O-360-A4K engine showing 1,375 hours since major overhaul (SMOH) against a 2,000-hour TBO, paired with a 2-blade propeller also at 1,375 hours SPOH. The aircraft just completed its annual inspection in October 2024 and comes with complete logbooks, reflecting consistent care.
The panel features a comprehensive Garmin suite including a WAAS-capable GNS530W GPS/NAV/COM, GFC500 digital autopilot, dual G5 flight instruments, GTX345 ADS-B transponder, and Garmin Flight Stream 210 for wireless connectivity. Additional upgrades include a PowerFlow exhaust system, Surefly electronic magneto, Alpha Systems AOA, and Aerospace Logic engine monitoring. The exterior and interior both rate 8/10, with useful load of 903.61 lbs and IFR-certified capability. Notable additions include LoPresti lighting enhancements, dynamic prop balancing, and Schroth inertia seat belts.
