    Diamond DA40 N266DS

    Now available – a truly a one of a kind aircraft!  2003 DA40 with WAAS, ASPEN, SVT, ADS-B, PowerFlow, Long Range Tanks, New Custom Interior and Much More.

    This plane belongs on a “Pimp My Ride Reality TV Show!”  Why is this configuration is particularly attractive and a unique value?

    DA40 control panelTo get the features included on this plane we typically guide our buyers to planes that cost well over $220-$280k.  Very few steam gauge DA40’s were upgraded to Aspen panels and fewer included Synthetic Vision (SVT).  It also has WAAS, GPS Steering couple to the autopilot (makes autopilot work very well) with 530 and 430 along with a GDL-88 for ADS-B FREE weather and traffic.

    The custom premiumDiamond DA40 front seats leather interior transforms the nature of the aircraft making it comfortable for long trips (it’s a $12,000+ upgrade by itself).  This DA40 provides the highest useful load we’ve ever seen on any DA40 with such a list of features.  The owner reports cruise in the 150Kt range and even more.  The recent annual and most previous service have been done by the top Diamond Expert Service Center on the East Coast. You can discuss the pedigree and condition of this plane with the mechanic to gain a true understanding of the value of this plane.

    It is also low time; only 700 some hours since new.  A buyer could enjoy this plane for years and sell it before it gets past “mid time” due to the low hours. This makes for a perfect first aircraft for any pilot that is looking for reliable well equipped modern transportation.
