1981 Piper Cheyenne ITurboprop Aircraft

This 1981 Piper Cheyenne I presents as a clean, well-maintained turboprop with no damage history, currently based in Rockland, Maine. The aircraft shows 7,731.4 total hours on the airframe, with both Pratt & Whitney PT6A-28 engines overhauled by Prime Turbines in December 2015 showing 537 hours since major overhaul. The propellers were replaced in May 2022 with only 146 hours accumulated. The aircraft features a fresh interior updated in May 2021 described as "like new," complemented by good exterior paint.

The Cheyenne I is equipped for serious IFR operations with FIKI (flight into known icing) capability, speed stacks, and a comprehensive avionics suite including dual Garmin 530W navigators, dual GTX 345 transponders with ADS-B Out, KFC 250 autopilot, XM weather, and TCAS. Recent maintenance includes replaced fuel bladders and an upcoming inspection scheduled with Friend Aircare in April 2025. With its 3,600-hour TBO remaining on both engines and recent major components, this aircraft offers a strong maintenance position for its next owner.
