Hi All,
We are entering the final parts of picking up a 1966 PA32-260. its a clean airplane and has a fairly fresh engine. All ADs seem to be complied with and the overall condition is free of corrosion. Its a hangared aircraft. Its biggest sin is not being flown enough.
The SB's do not look to have been completed as they were not mandatory.
Are there other gotchas that we should be looking for? What should we be checking for during the pre-buy flight for those that have purchased before? We will be doing the typical Prebuy but also owning an antique (Stinson) we know that we should be mindful of other items. For those of you having owned and operated a PA32 for awhile please let me know what we should be looking for.
Thoughts from the masses?
Thank you.
