Description

This is a 1978 Piper Cherokee 6 300 HP aircraft with the full LoPresti cowlings, gap seals, and wheel fairings. This gives the aircraft the looks and general aerodynamics of a more modern 6x, but with the Hershey-bar wings and 4 fuel tanks of a 1978 edition aircraft.
  

Avionics

The cockpit has an Aspen Evolution 2500 Pro Max glass panel with a GNX375 transponder/GPS. It is also has full autopilot coupling to GNSS flying off of the GPS, as well as altitude holding and APP/GS flying as well. This additionally provides both ADS-B in and out, allowing for TCAS and weather information to be shown on the Aspens, GNX375, and on Foreflight (or whichever similar service you may use, if it works with Garmin). This is great when flying into Oshkosh, as you can see the whole line of aircraft sequencing in on all of those devices. The updated cockpit no longer has a vacuum system, as it is no longer required with the Aspen 2500. This saves on weight, noise, power, and maintenance costs. The Aspen 2500 has full reversion from the PFD to the primary MFD, giving you backup instrumentation that is exactly the same and as capable as the primary instrumentation. This includes fully activated synthetic vision. Additionally, the engine instrumentation is displayed on a JPI-EDM900 engine monitor, with digital display of fuel quantities, electrical draw, and other engine information.The cockpit has an Aspen Evolution 2500 Pro Max glass panel with a GNX375 transponder/GPS.

Engines / Mods

The Engine is a Lycoming IO-540-K1G5, Serial Number RL-16950-48E. The propeller is  a 2-Blade Hartzell HC-C2YR-1BF, Serial Number CH34700B. While it is still being flown and the exact number will slowly change, the SMOH on the engine is approximately 250 Tach Hours, and the SMOH on the propeller is approximately 700 Tach Hours. Landing lights have been installed on both wings, and all landing and taxi lights are now LED. All logbooks are current, with all STCs, and all ADs have been complied with. Nearly all wiring in the aircraft was replaced during its panel upgrade in June 2022, and the back has GA plugs for all seats, along with Bluetooth music control that can be separate from the pilot.
