Airframe

1986 Socata TB-20 Trinidad, N52JG, S/N 670. TTAF 4,355. Lycoming IO-540-C4D5D, 2,250 SMOH - past published TBO but flying regularly and healthy, with strong compressions at the February 2026 annual (77/75/78/74/79/74 over 80), satisfactory ground run and leak check. McCauley B3D32C412-C three-blade prop, 793 SPOH. Priced to reflect engine time - an honest, flying airplane for the buyer planning an overhaul on their own schedule.

**Fresh annual 2/16/2026** (Belle Aircraft Maintenance, Fletcher NC) - no defects noted. **IFR 91.411/91.413 certifications completed 4/17/2026**, good through April 2028 - fly it IFR the day you take delivery (GPS approaches await your navigator upgrade or database update). AD compliance verified through 2/2026. ADS-B Out compliant. No known damage history. ELT battery good through 10/2027.

Remarks

The Trinidad is the great overlooked traveling machine of the retractable single market - 250 hp, ~155-knot cruise, 86 gallons usable, a cabin wider than a Bonanza's, gull-wing doors, and handling every owner describes the same way: docile. This one wears its original-style white with blue and gold livery and has been flown, maintained, and annualed continuously - not a hangar queen resurrection project.

Sold with all logbooks. Based at Asheville Regional (KAVL), Fletcher, NC. Reasonable pre-buy inspection welcome at KAVL
