Detailed Description

Low time, well equipped Comanche 180.   2760 TTAF, 1177 hrs engine and prop.  STEC 60-2 autopilot, Garmin GNX 375 gps/transponder (Bluetooth and ADS-B in/out), Electroair ignition, 3 blade McCauley prop, LED strobe and landing lights, lighted panel for night ops, new front seats, wing tips, gap seals, gear fairings, engine preheat, Bruce's cover and cowl plugs, and more.  This was my travel machine for 6 years of commuting from West PA to Chicago.  Flew ~180 hours / year and did plenty of maintenance and improvements.  Oil changes every 33 hours.  Gear and horn ADs in past 3 years.  Efficient trainer and cross country aircraft for 1-2 people.  8192P will do 140+ kts on ~9 GPH.  I run more efficient and plan ~135 kts.  Flight plan at 8K ft, 2000 rpm / WOT 136 kts on 7.9 GPH.  At 11K ft, 135 kts on 7.4 GPH.  Solid IFR platform.  Have 50 hrs actual IMC in this plane.  Mission has changed for me.  Love this plane but I have to go further, faster, and through more weather so 8192P needs a new caretaker while I search for my next one.
