About Piper - PA-28-161 Cadet

New to the market is G-EKIR, a 1989 Piper Cadet — perfect for flight schools or private buyers looking for a straightforward aircraft that’s available and ready to go. ‍ The Cadet is one of the most beginner-friendly platforms ever built. It’s simple to fly, easy to maintain, and affordable to operate — everything a new pilot or owner could want. Insurance costs are typically lower too, making it a smart first step into ownership. ‍ Currently in active use as a dependable school aircraft, G-EKIR is powered by a Lycoming O-320 engine with 1789 hours since overhaul in 2020. A full component status report is available, clearly outlining the aircraft’s maintenance history and current operational condition. ‍ The airframe is complemented by a stylish blue-on-white paint scheme, which continues into the cockpit with a matching grey and blue two-tone leather interior. Avionics include a Garmin GNC255A NAV/COM and Garmin GMA340 audio panel — both upgrades that enhance usability. ‍ G-EKIR remains a fantastic example of what makes the Piper Cadet a favourite in the world of ab-initio flight training: responsive handling, low running costs, and simple, reliable systems. It’s a forgiving yet capable platform that provides a solid foundation for student pilots — and is just as rewarding for casual weekend flyers. ‍ Viewings are welcome — please get in touch for more details. ‍ £70,000.00 + VAT ‍ Airframe hours: 14080 Engine model: Lycoming O-320-D3G Engine hours: 1870 (OH 2020) Propeller model: Sensenich Prop. hours: 696 Annual due: January 2026 ARC due: October 2025 Interior: undefined Exterior: undefined Options: undefined
