This 1997 Piper Seneca V (registration VH-LMI) represents a meticulously maintained twin-engine aircraft with significant recent upgrades, having accumulated 2,497 total airframe hours. Each of its Continental TSIO360RB turbocharged engines has 1,281 hours since new, well below their 2,000-hour TBO, with all cylinders recently replaced or reconditioned. The aircraft benefits from a substantial $390,000 investment in upgrades, including new main and nose landing gear strut assemblies, overhauled oleo struts with fresh seals, and an upgraded brake system with new linings.

Avionics enhancements feature a modern Garmin GFC 500 autopilot system with four servos, complemented by a GMC 507 controller and GTX 345R ADS-B transponder for IFR capability. The cabin includes UV-filtered windows, an overhauled air conditioning system, and an Iridium sat phone holder integrated with COM 3. Additional upgrades include LED wingtip lighting, a speed modification package for improved aerodynamics, and 3-blade constant-speed propellers. The interior accommodates six passengers with upgraded safety belts, sound insulation, and 12V power under the rear seat. With its comprehensive maintenance history and modern systems, this Seneca V is positioned for reliable performance and comfort.
