About the Lancair IV-P
The Lancair IV-P is a pressurised, four-seat, experimental composite single capable of ~270+ kt in the flight levels — turbocharged Continental TSIO-550 power, retractable gear and pressurisation give it turboprop-rivalling cross-country speed for a fraction of the price. As an amateur-built aircraft, its value and safety hinge on build quality, documentation and proper transition training.

Buying a Used Lancair IV-P
Every Lancair IV-P faces a mandatory 2,000-hour overhaul, so the single biggest factor in used price is how much time remains before that overhaul is due — a fresh-overhaul airframe can be worth a large share of the $35,000 overhaul cost more than one approaching its limit.
What to check before buying
- Time to overhaul — hours and years remaining to the 2,000-hour limit; this dominates resale value more than total time.
- Logbook completeness — continuous, gap-free maintenance records; missing logs cut value and complicate financing.
- Damage history — any prior accident, hard landing or blade strike; cross-check the registration against accident databases.
- Avionics — a glass panel vs steam gauges materially changes price.
- Pre-buy inspection — always commission an independent inspection by a type-experienced mechanic before money changes hands.
