0 Comments

Price: SOLD!

Ready for your Garmin G1000NXi Piper Meridian? Look no further. N575CA is a beautiful, well kept 2011 Piper Meridian that has been upgraded to the Hartzell 5 Blade Composite Propeller and the G1000NXi.

The airplane has an excellent maintenance pedigree, maintained most recently by First Line Aero, a well known PA46 maintenance shop, Des Moines Flying Service, Cutter Aviation, both Piper Service Centers, and Mead Aircraft, one of the best PA46 shops in the country. The current owner flies the airplane regularly and it has never been overtemped.

N575CA can take you higher than other Meridians with the RVSM STC, giving the airplane a service ceiling of FL300 where it sips less than 200 pounds per hour of fuel. That increases your range by a lot. FIKI, Air Conditioning (complete with a 2.5 year old compressor and several of the new style AC hoses), Emergency Oxygen, ADS-B Traffic and Weather, and XM Radio. What more could you ask for? Contact Us today!

Insurance approved training is available with Texas Top Aviation, LLC after the purchase of the aircraft.

SOLD! 2007 Columbia 350 N113FP

0 Comments

Price:  SOLD!

Elegant design meets speed and efficiency in N113FP, a gorgeous example of a well loved and cared for G1000 Columbia 350. True craftsmanship went into the design of every Columbia aircraft, with N113FP being no exception. From the wood handled side sticks and fuel selector to the fully composite airframe, this airplane screams attention to detail.

If you’ve never flown a Columbia 350, you are in store for an aviation experience. Cruising lean of peak at 8,500 feet, you’ll easily see 165 KTAS on 12.5 GPH. Yes, 12.5 GPH. That’s 7 hours of range with a 45 minute reserve at full fuel. Need to carry more people? Take fuel to the tabs (50 Gallons) and still go 3 hours with a 45 minute reserve. You’ll want to stop before the plane needs to by a long shot.

N113FP has the much desired WAAS Garmin G1000 fully integrated glass panel, complete with the GFC 700 Autopilot, ADS-B In and Out, and Synthetic Vision. Always hangared, no damage history. Upgraded Rosen Sun Visors. All wheel pants are in excellent condition. Fresh annual. This airplane is a true “buy and fly” machine.

SOLD! 2008 Cessna 400 N450TF

0 Comments

Price:  SOLD!

What is not to love about a Cessna 400? Twin Turbocharging, excellent climb performance, and fantastic cruise speeds (175 KTAS on 16 GPH at 10,000 feet). Need to descend quick? No problem, just pop the speed brakes and down you go. Air Conditioning, Oxygen, and ThermaWing, N450TF has all the options that are available for a Cessna 400.

The Cessna 400 is a pilot’s airplane. When you settle in to the pilot’s seat, the ergonomics of the cabin wrap around you, giving a feel like the airplane was made for you. The push/pull rods flight controls feel very smooth and responsive.

One owner since 2011 who has put the majority of time on the airplane. Always hangared and meticulously maintained by detailed maintenance shops. Original engine that still shows signs of performing well for years to come. Equipped with an Electro Air Electronic Ignition, which allows for better cold and hot starting, plus more efficient engine performance. The propeller was overhauled at the 2025 annual. All logbooks are digitally backed up through PlaneLogix, which are easily transferred to the care of the new owner.

Tons of extras (see Airframe section below)!

SOLD! 2009 Piper PA46-500TP N6081E

0 Comments

Price: SOLD!

Are you looking for a Piper Meridian for sale that is completely ready to go? Look no further than N6081E, a gorgeous 2009 Piper Meridian that has literally had no expense spared in caring for it. G1000NXi, 2024 Paint, 2024 Interior, and an engine overhaul in 2024, what more can you ask for? The MT 5 Blade Composite Prop saves weight and makes for a quieter ride.

Speeds of more than 270 KTAS at FL280 burning less than 40 GPH gives pilots the speed they want. That’s over 300 mph! The overhauled engine runs cool at that speed, as the owner only sees about 740 ITT. The ability to climb to FL280 gives you more options when avoiding weather.

N6081E is the cream of the G1000 Meridian class. Year old paint and interior makes the airplane pop on the ramp, making people think the airplane is brand new! The Pratt and Whitney PT6-42A engine was overhauled last year, making this one of the few Meridians to have an overhaul in the fleet.

Meticulously maintained by First Line Aero in Jacksonville, TX (KJSO), the owner has done anything and everything it has needed. Hangared most of it’s life and the entire time after the new paint job. No damage history. Upgraded engine mount. This plane is ready to go.

Ready to call N6081E yours? Call Ryne Bergren at (254) 424-4110 or ryne@txtopaviation.com. Complete logs and digital copies available.
