Remarks We are a small flight school in south central Wisconsin and purchased this plane in 2022 for flight training. It was used for this purpose approximately 400 tach hours and was well maintained. We decided to invest in a new engine, propeller, and avionics in 2025, thinking this would be a great addition to our school. Unfortunately, due to family health issues, we made a choice to wind down the school in 2026 and sell this plane. Please takeflightaviationwi.com As you can tell from the great paint condition, the prior owner, along with us have kept it hangered. This plane is ready to go and for you to enjoy with everything updated for hours/years to come! Please visit our website at takeflightaviationwi.com
