2008 Piper MeridianTurboprop Aircraft

This 2008 Piper Meridian PA46-500TP (N477JE) presents a well-maintained single-engine turboprop with 1,075 total hours and 910 landings, currently undergoing its annual inspection at Sun Aviation in Vero Beach, Florida. Powered by a Pratt & Whitney PT6A-42A engine with matching airframe time, the aircraft is receiving a hot section inspection due to blade sulfidation at Standard Aero, while its Hartzell HC-E4N-3Q propeller was recently overhauled in May 2024 with 141 hours since overhaul. The Meridian features a modern Avidyne Entegra glass cockpit with dual Garmin GTN 650 GPS units, GTX 345/330 transponders, S-TEC 3100 autopilot, and full WAAS/LPV capability, with all avionics software updated in May 2024.

With a useful load of 1,567 lbs and 1,140 NM range, this pressurized, FIKI-equipped aircraft offers IFR capability with six-seat configuration. The exterior and interior both maintain an 8/10 condition rating, featuring Lopresti landing gear lights and a battery minder connection. Currently based at KHNB, the aircraft has complete maintenance records primarily serviced by Sun Aviation. The seller notes the current owner wishes to retain the N-number.
