Description

Pending sale fell through due to buyer losing his job. 

Here's your chance to own a heavily sought after Tiger! This is a great aircraft which has taken my family and I all over the East coast. A true 4 seat aircraft. Very reliable and predictable. I got my Instrument Rating and Commercial license in the plane and it has served me well. Moving to something with 6 seats to accommodate a growing family.
