Summary
Our 340A project has been upgraded with RAM Series IV Engines (335 HP) and Hartzell Q-Tips props. This plane was donated to us needing engine work. The left engine is in need of an overhaul and the right engine has one cylinder @ 26lb. It is being sold “As Is, Where Is” on the ramp outside the TRIAD Aviation engine overhaul facility at Brunswick, NC since it needs the engine work performed to be airworthy.
