Description
The Socata TB10 Tobago is well known for its comfortable cabin, predictable handling characteristics and economical operating costs. Powered by the reliable 180 hp Lycoming O-360 engine, it offers an excellent balance between performance, payload capability and efficiency.
This particular aircraft benefits from comparatively low airframe and engine times, a recently refurbished leather interior, a Hartzell constant-speed propeller, wheel fairings, S-TEC autopilot and a current Airworthiness Review Certificate. Additional highlights include the Gomolzig exhaust system and the well-maintained overall condition of both the interior and exterior.
With its combination of low operating costs, practical equipment and attractive appearance, this TB10 represents an excellent opportunity for private owners, flight schools or touring pilots looking for a proven four-seat travelling aircraft.
