Vans RV-7A
Aircraft description
LAME maintained and always hangared, VH-CGM is a surprisingly well-fitted out aircraft with practically every extra included!
A comprehensive suite of avionics and equipment (such as Garmin G5 EFIS, a Garmin 660 touchscreen GPS, JPI EDM700 engine management system and autopilot) combines with mid-time engine hours for a package that, if built today, would cost in excess of AUD$250,000! Other fitted extras include dual battery and alternator system, wingtip strobes, dual landing lights and pitot heat! Finally, tip tanks add 96 litres of fuel (2.5 hours of range), for a total of 256 litres!
This aircraft is suited to a buyer looking for a combination of 'steam' and glass inside the cockpit (with practically every extra), alongside comfortable, efficient long-range touring!
