    N8241R is a 300 horsepower 1972 Bellanca Super Viking. A classic wood, fabric and steel-tube fuselage airplane, the Super Viking is one of the best value propositions on the market. An honest 160 KTAS airplane at 8,5000ft (on ~13-14gph) with sports car handling, you won’t find more airplane for your money.

    IFR-equipped with a WAAS GPS, ADS-B out and a working autopilot, it needs nothing to fly it across the country today.

    41R has been a great airplane for us for 8 years, and we are only selling because we are upgrading to a twin.

    Engine: ~1,018 hours since overhaul (3,090 hours since new) Continental IO520K (300hp)

    As long as you wear less than a size 40 jacket, maybe even 38.
