Description

We are proud to represent N8315Y, a rare-to-find classic 1967 Piper Twin Turbo Comanche (C/R) that stands out in today’s legacy twin market for its economical cruise, thoughtful updates, and strong mechanicals. This aircraft features newly updated turbocharged Lycoming IO-320-C1A engines (Rajay system) with only 355 hours since major overhaul and propellers showing just 37 hours SMOH, paired with a total airframe time of 4,630 hours. The result is a rare combination of vintage character and dependable, modern-day cross-country capability. The turbocharged engines deliver the strong, efficient performance that made the Twin Comanche a legendary long-range platform. The exterior finish remains in excellent condition, reflecting meticulous care by previous owners, while the interior is comfortable and serviceable for pilot and passengers. Modern ADS-B compliance and a suite of Garmin and Avidyne avionics upgrades bring this classic twin fully into current operational standards without sacrificing its timeless appeal. N8315Y offers the increasingly hard-to-find balance of low-fuel-burn, low-time powerplants; solid airframe hours; and meaningful avionics modernization. Contact ClearBlue Aero today to schedule your private viewing and discover why this Twin Comanche belongs in your hangar.
