2017 American Champion 7-Gcbc ExplorerSingle-Engine Piston Aircraft • Mayfield, KY, USA

The aircraft has a clean history with zero damage incidents and has been consistently hangared in the U.S., showing excellent preservation of its Maule Blue over Juneau White starburst paint scheme and near-pristine Falcon vinyl/grey fabric interior.
