1979 Piper Turbo Arrow IVSingle-Engine Piston Aircraft

This 1979 Piper Turbo Arrow IV (registration I-AESC) presents as a well-maintained European-based aircraft with a comprehensive maintenance history. The airframe shows 3,510 total hours and features a Continental TSIO-360-FB1A engine with the same total time, last overhauled in 2018 with 1,774 hours since major overhaul. A notable propeller strike occurred in 2021, after which the engine underwent a shock load inspection and received a new 3-blade MT composite propeller with Woodward governor. The aircraft benefits from recent avionics upgrades including a 2022-installed Aspen EFD1000 primary flight display, Garmin GNS430 WAAS GPS/NAV/COM, and STEC 60 autopilot system, making it IFR-capable with modern navigation capabilities.

The aircraft's exterior maintains its original Piper color scheme of Juneau White with Matador Red trim and shows good condition. The interior features red velour seating with black accents and retains its original 4-place configuration with shoulder harnesses throughout. Recent maintenance includes an annual inspection completed May 2023, and the propeller has only 305 hours since new installation in January 2018. The aircraft comes with both its current price option and an alternative offer including an engine overhaul for €188,000. Based at Brescia Montichiari, this Turbo Arrow IV has been under CAMO maintenance since its import to Italy in 1988 and includes useful equipment like a WX8 Stormscope and Kannad 406 AF ELT system.
