North American T28ASingle-Engine Piston Aircraft

This NORTH AMERICAN T28A, registered as N28AM with serial number 49-1700, presents a rare opportunity to own a well-maintained military trainer aircraft with 2,377 total hours on the airframe. Powered by a Curtiss-Wright R-1300-1B engine producing 800 HP with 1,040 hours since major overhaul by Rudy Blakey, Inc. in 1996, the aircraft features an Aero Products A422-E1 two-blade propeller with approximately 900 hours remaining and a recent regulator overhaul. The avionics suite includes dual Garmin GTR-200 comms, a GMA 245 audio panel with intercom, a Garmin 696 GPS, and a Terra TRT-250 transponder encoder.

The aircraft is undergoing a comprehensive inspection and update program expected to be completed by October 2024, which includes new hoses, gear bungee overhaul, canopy bottle hydrotest, hydraulic system overhauls, and new cables as needed. Recent maintenance includes new tires and tubes installed in 2023, a carburetor overhaul in 2023, and a new GE-50C Gill battery. The exterior sports classic U.S. Air Force markings in white and red with stars and bars, while the interior features light gray cockpits. All ADs were complied with at the time of the last inspection by Martin Aviation in Tallulah, Louisiana. The aircraft is currently based in Shelby, Mississippi, and presents as a well-documented example of this historic military trainer.
