2003 Diamond DA40-180 StarSingle-Engine Piston Aircraft

This 2003 Diamond DA40-180 Star (N859PA) presents as a well-maintained four-seat trainer with current IFR certification and 6,332 hours on the airframe. The Lycoming IO-360-M1A engine shows 1,613 hours since its December 2016 overhaul, with compression readings between 62/80 and 75/80 across cylinders, while the Hartzell constant-speed propeller has 730 hours since its last overhaul. The aircraft retains its original 2003 paint and interior, described as ready for cosmetic updates, and carries an 867.8 lb useful load with 40 gallons of usable fuel capacity.

The panel features dual GNS 430 navigators, a GTX 335 transponder, and an EDM-900 engine monitor alongside conventional RCA attitude and directional gyros. Maintenance records are complete since new, with the annual inspection current through October 2025, pitot-static/transponder checks valid until June 2025, and all ADs complied with. Operational lights have been upgraded to LED, and the ELT battery is serviceable until March 2026. Based at KXLL, this DA40-180 serves as a solid platform for flight training or personal use with recent major component overhauls.
