Superstar 700 Pressurized Aerostar

Aerostar airframe serial number 507 is a 1978 Piper Aerostar 601P, one of the first with the Piper nameplate.  The 1978 model was produced in Santa Maria, CA, and is the first with an integrated annunciator panel in the glareshield.

This plane is one of the lowest time in the fleet, and has been our personal driver for the past 8 years.  This is a reliable, turn-key plane that is squawked every time it flies. 

Most of the maintenance history of this plane is with an Aerostar specialist. N680JM does have an incident of damage history, impeccably repaired - please call for details as it is a long story.

All systems are working correctly, and the pressurization and turbo-system are strong.  This plane is exceptionally maintained.

This plane is based in Boulder, Colorado, is available for viewing by appointment.  N680JM is ready for immediate delivery, and is for sale by owner with no liens of record.
