Hi All,
I'm reaching out to the forum to uncover any issues with the Piper PA38 Tomahawk. Yes, a pre-buy in person inspection will be accomplished.
N38PR
Serial Number: 38-78A0780
5850 Total Time
1828 SFOH (2400 TBO)
Sensenich Prop
Last annual March 2020, due again April 1, 2021
24 month xpdr test done 3/5/2020, due again 4/5/2022
ADSB out thru Garmin GSL-82
New Capret March 2020
King KMA24 Audiopanel
Dual King KX170B Navcoms
King KT76A Transponder
ADSB Out
No Damage History
No Hail/Corrosion
My mission is to get my PPL. I have flown PA38, 150, 152, 172, Coupe and find the TH to be a "Keep the training real and honest". As my instructor says; "You train for the real thing and you train well".
Anyways, I'll be going through the FAA site to review reoccurring ADs on the airframe, engine, and propeller. So if you can reply with "Check on this" or "This will be an upcoming unanticipated expense", maybe a "Big unexpected annual inspection item" that would be greatly appreciated.
I understand the TH is 40+ years and will need to be upgraded, I just don't want a big ticket, long lead work time issues that could have been identified before hand.
