Today’s Top Pick is a 2007 Lancair IV-P.

For the owner-pilot who craves speed above all else, this experimental Lancair IV-P is a compelling find. It represents one of the fastest and most sophisticated designs ever offered in the kit-built market.

This aircraft delivers a rare combination of pressurized, high-altitude comfort and blistering cross-country performance that rivals or exceeds many production twins, all from a single 350 hp engine.

This 2007 model stands out with an exceptionally low 320 hours of total airframe time since new. It is powered by a twin-turbocharged Continental TSIO-550C1 engine, which also has only 320 hours since major overhaul. That engine turns a four-blade MT composite propeller that is nearly brand new, with only five hours. The airframe is equipped with winglets, electric speedbrakes, and hydraulic flaps and landing gear.

This IV-P is built for serious, all-weather travel. It features a 5.5 psi cabin pressure differential, capable of maintaining an 8,500-foot cabin at 24,000 feet msl. The cabin is also equipped with factory air conditioning and a built-in, four-place emergency oxygen system.

The custom aluminum panel is built for professional IFR flying. The cockpit is centered on the Dynon EFIS SkyView Touch system with an integrated autopilot. Situational awareness is provided by a Garmin GNS530WAAS gps/nav/com, Garmin SL30 nav/com, Garmin GTX330ES transponder for ADS-B Out, L3 SkyWatch TCAS, and BFGoodrich WX1000+ Stormscope. A King KCS-55A provides a slaved HSI, and the audio is managed by a Garmin GMA 340 panel.

The secret to the IV-P’s performance is its advanced, all-composite airframe, which utilizes carbon fiber. This construction allows for a very low-drag, “slippery” design, enabling it to cruise comfortably at high altitudes and achieve speeds that leave most production aircraft far behind. As one of the most sophisticated kitplanes ever designed, it is known for rewarding experienced pilots with unparalleled performance.

Listed at $349,000, this 2007 Lancair IV-P presents a rare opportunity to acquire a pressurized, low-time speed machine for a fraction of the cost of a new, slower aircraft.
