Summary

N8666Y is a 1969 C-model Twin Comanche. It has been flying regularly for time-building and training by the owner and has had consistent, thorough maintenance under his ownership. With engine TMSOH averages just above mid-life, this airplane is a good candidate for further time building or future avionics or cosmetic upgrades. The owner is selling due to wanting to upgrade himself to a larger twin that better fits his current mission.
