Aircraft description

This stunning, LAME-maintained RV-7A has been fitted with everything a modern pilot needs! A suite of professionally installed Garmin avionics combines with the injected AeroSport IO-360 (180HP) power plant, Surefly electronic ignition, go-around button, and a host of other extras - for safe, recreational flying or cross-country cruising.

VH-CEW consistently achieves 30LPH cruise fuel flow (lean of peak) at 8000 feet and 160kts TAS. Fresh LAME-completed annual booked in February 2026 (included in the sale).

This aircraft simply won't last - contact us today! Fresh LAME-completed annual just completed. New brakes and 2 main tyres fitted. Ready to go! An equivalent build - apart from build time and delivery wait time - will cost considerably more than AUD$300,000.
