1970 SIAI MARCHETTI SF260 Aerobat for sale in Wyckoff, New Jersey

$165,000

The Marchetti F260 is a military Light Attack Fighter/ Trainer presently being manufactured by Aeromacchi. This aircraft is flown extensively in Europe and all over the world. It is still operated by the military in over 20 countries. There are twenty seven F260's in the FAA registry-most of these are certified in the Experimental Exhibition category.
This aircraft has been maintained as if my life depended on it. I?ve flown it in airshows for the last six years. It?s one thing to fly an aircraft. It?s another to fly low level aerobatics in one- where even the most minor mechanical problem can?t be tolerated.
This F260 is a unique aircraft. To my knowledge, it is the only aircraft in the world (with a piston engine) that is able to change the color of its smoke trail while in flight. It took over three years to develop and certify this smoke system.
The engine has had a recent overhaul (9/09) and has approximately 190 SMOH, a new MT propeller and a new clear bubble canopy.
It is certified in the Standard Category in the U.S.A. All Airworthiness Directives have been complied with. Annual inspection is next due on 4/31/12. Logbooks are complete from date of manufacture.
