Premier Aircraft Sales is proud to announce the launch of the new Premier Edition Piper Dakota program – an opportunity to own a like-new Dakota at about half the price of a new Archer
Why Dakota?
The Premier Edition Piper Dakota is a great choice for people seeking a pristine-condition four-place airplane that’s easy to fly and economical to own, with modern avionics and in top mechanical condition. The Dakota is one of the very few four-seat airplanes that can actually carry four full-sized adults plus 72 gallons of fuel and still have around 100 lbs. left for baggage. Aviation Consumer’s review of the aircraft says, “If we were in the market for a bigger Piper, we’d opt for the nicest Dakota we could find.”
What’s the program?
The Premier Edition Dakota is actually a three level-program: The Silver Dakota, the Gold Dakota and the Platinum Dakota (see chart below). The basic Silver Dakota includes:
An extensive annual inspection ensuring all time life Items, service bulletins and AD’s are complied with
An engine overhauled to factory-new tolerances, including new Lycoming cylinders
A new three-bladed propeller that increases performance and is quieter
An avionics package which is custom-designed to your equipment specifications
