Each day, the team at Aircraft For Sale picks an airplane that catches our attention because it is unique, represents a good deal, or has other interesting qualities. You can read Aircraft For Sale: Today’s Top Pick at FLYINGMag.com daily.
Today’s Top Pick is a 2007 Lancair ES-P
Lancair is well known for the aerodynamically efficient, amateur-built experimental aircraft kits it produced for decades. Many of its most popular aircraft are compact, two-place machines that can be effective traveling airplanes as long as the occupants know how to pack lightly. The four-place ES models helped the company move closer to the mainstream in terms of equipment, accommodations, and passenger expectations.
In the familiar quest to cut travel times, the ES-P adds pressurization to allow more comfortable cruising at high altitudes. Turbocharging keeps the power high as the air thins. This combination of speed, comfort, and convenience makes the ES-P an attractive proposition to pilots who want to travel long distances with their families and friends while saving time and avoiding the use of tubing and cannulas to deliver supplemental oxygen in the flight levels.
This Lancair ES-P has 430 hours on the airframe and on its Continental 400 hp TSIO-550 engine and MT four-blade propeller since overhaul. The aircraft was built from a kit with assistance from RDD Enterprises and features an extended rear pressure bulkhead that provides additional space in the pressurized cabin.
The panel includes dual Garmin G3X Touch displays with 10.6-inch screens, GTN 750 WAAS GPS, GFC 507 autopilot, SL 30 panel-mount Nav/Com, GMA 245R audio panel and a GEA-24 engine monitor module. Additional equipment includes a heated pitot and AOA probe, RDD Thermawing de-ice, prop de-ice, and RDD air conditioning.
Pilots who are interested in well-equipped, high-performance kit-built aircraft should consider this 2007 Lancair ES-P, which is available for $475,000 on AircraftForSale.
You can arrange financing of the aircraft through FLYING Finance. For more information, email info@flyingfinance.com.
