Beechcraft Musketeer A23A
Aircraft description
This aircraft boasts exceptionally low engine time (under 400 hours) on its injected IO-346-A power plant, while the Sensenich two-blade fixed-pitch propeller has just 5 hours SMOH.
Beautifully re-sprayed in the classic Beechcraft White/Red/Grey scheme, this example offers significant value by any calculation!
In the cockpit, VH-CTR is equipped with both a Garmin GTX 327 mode C transponder and portable Sky Echo ADSB- out unit. The autopilot is operational, and it is also fitted with a GME MT 410 ELT. A new battery has been fitted, and other features include a heated pitot tube and modern, colour Attitude Indicator.
Fresh fuel tank seals and cleaned tanks, cleaned lines, fuel filters and cleaned injectors - just completed.
This aircraft is a 'must-consider' for the new RPL/PPL looking for hours, as a small family commuter, or personal recreational aircraft.
