1979 Piper Navajo ChieftainMulti-Engine Piston Aircraft

This 1979 Piper Navajo Chieftain (N130BV) presents a well-equipped twin with recent major component overhauls, showing 11,207 total airframe hours. Both Lycoming TIO-540-J2BD engines and McCauley props have only 20 hours since major overhaul, offering nearly fresh powerplants. The aircraft features factory de-ice boots (currently inoperative), vortex generators with a boundary layer VG kit, and dual-door configuration with both crew and cargo access.

The panel is IFR-capable with Collins avionics including dual VIR351 navs, VHS-251 coms, DME, and TDR-950 transponder, complemented by a Northstar M60 GPS and King KFC-200 autopilot/flight director. The white/blue/red exterior houses a light blue cloth interior with walnut cabinetry and seating for eight, including a potty. While the listing notes this as the "best value PA-31-350 on market today," prospective buyers should verify all systems, particularly the inoperative de-ice equipment, during pre-purchase inspection. The aircraft is based at Albany, NY with the seller encouraging offers.
