Comments

Of the 4857 aircraft sold in the PA-24 range, the 260C offers the second-largest payload of all the models. On the ramp, the 260C is both distinct and elegant with its signature elongated 'Tiger Shark' cowling, propeller shaft and longer nose gear door that also help to secure its massive 600kg + useful load capacity.

VH-SMJ offers the new owner peace of mind of a freshly overhauled 260HP Lycoming engine and Hartzell Propeller, a full brand new interior, all the available speed modifications, a suite of quality avionics and fresh annual.
