WTS: Lancair IV-P C-FZID Pre-Sell for Fall 2022

[LancairTalk Sales]

We are announcing early this beautiful IV-P based up nearby Edmonton Alberta Canada. Jason the owner built an unreal hangar for this airplane and is upgrading to a dual G3X carbon panel, new 406 Artex ELT from LancairTalk, a new EarthX battery from LancairTalk, Friedl Wingtips from Maurits and Germany, new Nose Strut from Chris Z and much more. A new interior also. The plane is getting upgraded to 24v and the new AC unit from Europe is being installed also.

Jason wants to move up to the IV-PT and is building hours and training with Anna who is now type-rated by Transport Canada to fly Canadian IV-P aircraft. We expect this completion to be done this fall. The panel is already completed and bench tested by Maurits, see the photo below--magnificent. The Friedl wingtips installed in 2 days so if you want a set that looks that good give me a shout.

Here are some preliminary photos. We will have more coming.

Price is set at 549,900 all-in and done and we'll either train here in Canada for a Canadian or provide training and import services and insurance help for other buyers. If you think you might be interested you can place a refundable deposit and lock in a price and position. Whoever is looking for a clean, no-expense-spared IV-P with the latest G3X panel and features including Smart-Glide now is the time to reserve this beast.

Our view at LancairTalk is that the market will continue to get more difficult for buyers. Parts and airplanes are still flying off the shelf--if there is anything left to buy. People are finding that airlines are not going to be an efficient way to travel for the next while and business people need to get to their clients and back quickly with predicable schedules. When you look at the 1.2MM cost of a Cirrus and the wait time, this is an easy choice. You get Smart-Glide technology with the latest GTN 750Xi wired in by Maurits with this panel.

If you want to demo this monster please arrange a call and schedule a flight. If you want to discuss reserving this for a completion in the fall or simply take it today with the new panel and install yourself then that's an option. We plan to take it down for about 3-4 weeks this fall and complete the transition. Until then it is flying regularly and available to customize.

Good luck.

FYI, this IV-P has an incredible story of being acquired and it is the material movies are made from. Perhaps one day I can get the video interview--incredibly funny.

This stunning IV-P came about solely because the owner would not stop until he found the airplane he saw in an Advertisement. The seller would not answer for 6 months and after 100s of calls he got it. He needed a hangar and last year in 3 months he broke ground and built this stunning hangar with living quarters and everything you need. Nothing is spared in this Lancair and it is getting a gorgeous new G3X panel, already built, tested and ready for replacement by Maurits and VR Canada Avionics. Maurits and LancairTalk have a lot of Garmin avionics if you need a panel--no waiting because we ordered last December and as of August everything is now delivered.

If you want this IV-P then book it now. We're scheduled to update voltage to 24v for the AC going in. Then the panel will be swapped in this fall. The plane already flies with terrific pressurization and speeds. We will get more data and video in the weeks coming.

If you want a demo of this plane in it current form please contact me. We can bring it down to the US or you can come up to Calgary. Come inspect the new panel. Check out the engine, logs, interior and maintenance. Make a deal today or just make a deposit to be first in line when it is transformed this fall. Don't delay. Someone is going to book this because quality 4-seat Lancairs are rare in 2022 and the outlook is looking for a strong market to continue through 2023.

No, this isn't summer in Canada. Sheesh. That snow melted at least a week ago.

A few more pictures and some progress report on the new panel going in plus other modifications for 2023.

Here is the new circuit breaker panel Maurits is preparing for the new panel and 24v upgrade. LancairTalk supplied the EarthX battery and had the fuel pump updated to 24v and updated the hydraulic pump motor to 24v.

In the tail we are planning to add the new Artex 406 ELT from LancairTalk and Maurits is going to wire in provision for the yaw damper to be added. This is an inexpensive feature that many people in the back seat appreciate during turbulence. No dutch roll or tail swinging. On an approach I love the yaw damper because the nose doesn't swing through the heading bug in rough weather. It is a great upgrade for perhaps $900 plus labour.

The Friedel wingtips are off now for installation of new wires and I think the GTP probe.

Pretty soon, this airplane will be flying again with AC, G3X, 24v and a 400hp Continental.

The panel is now out and 24v conversion is almost done. New starter, hydraulic pump motor, alternator and more. Until that's done, here is what it looked like before. Lancair IV-P with the Friedel tips.
