As a previous owner of three planes — a Piper Turbo Ar­row III (N6399C), a Piper Dakota (N8163E), and a Cess­na 310Q (N69797) — I’ve enjoyed buying, restoring, and upgrading these aircraft, only to sell them as offers came unsolic­ited. As my father used to say, “If the price is right, sell.”

Restoring and upgrading this plane has been a labor of love for Gary. “It’s like coming home for me when flying. I’ve flown a number of aircraft in my fly­ing career, but when I fly this classic, I’m taken back to the romantic days of flying.
