What should I check when buying a used Piper PA-31T Cheyenne?

On a used Piper PA-31T Cheyenne, check airframe hours, engine time since overhaul, avionics generation and damage history before anything else. PlaneFox recommends a pre-purchase inspection by an EASA Part-145 shop that knows the type, which typically costs EUR 1,500 to EUR 3,500. Under 1,500 airframe hours is low-time and above 3,500 means budgeting for higher maintenance; most piston engines run a 2,000-hour TBO, so past 1,500 to 1,700 hours since overhaul expect the overhaul within one to three years at EUR 25,000 to EUR 45,000. Read the full logbook history for prop strikes, gear-up landings and structural repair, and confirm ADs and SBs are complied with.

About the Piper PA-31T Cheyenne

Aircraft overview

The Piper PA-31T Cheyenne is a pressurized twin turboprop produced by Piper Aircraft as a turbine development of the PA-31 Navajo family. The prototype flew in 1969, certification followed in the early 1970s, and customer deliveries began in 1974. Production continued into the 1980s. It occupies the light business turboprop category, positioned for owner pilots and corporate operators needing turbine performance, pressurization and runway flexibility without moving into a larger cabin class. The PA-31T designation is important because it identifies the original Cheyenne line, later commonly associated with the Cheyenne II, not the smaller PA-31T1 Cheyenne I or the larger PA-42 Cheyenne III and IV.

Performance & specifications

Typical cruise speed for the Piper PA-31T Cheyenne is about 250 to 260 knots, depending on altitude, weight, engine condition and installed equipment. Range is commonly planned around 900 to 1,000 nautical miles with IFR reserves, although payload and fuel tradeoffs matter. The aircraft has a certified ceiling of 29,000 feet. Power comes from two Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-28 turboprops, each rated at 620 shp, driving three blade propellers on most examples. Useful load varies by serial number and equipment fit, but many aircraft fall in the roughly 2,500 to 3,000 lb class.

Cabin & avionics

The PA-31T Cheyenne typically seats one or two pilots and up to six passengers, with a pressurized cabin arranged in executive club or mixed forward and aft facing layouts. The cabin is narrower than later clean sheet turboprops, but it offers a practical step up from piston twins, with airstair entry, baggage space and turbine cabin altitude capability. Original avionics were generally analog Collins, Bendix or Bendix/King installations. On the used market, many aircraft have been modernized with Garmin GNS or GTN navigators, Garmin G600 or G600 TXi displays, Aspen displays, weather radar, ADS-B and upgraded autopilots. Garmin G1000 and Garmin Perspective are not typical factory installations for this model.

Buying & value

Buyers should review engine times, hot section and overhaul status, propeller times, pressurization system condition, corrosion inspections, landing gear maintenance and records for compliance with applicable airworthiness directives and service bulletins. Common value drivers include avionics modernization, paint and interior condition, damage history, known icing equipment and engine program status if applicable. Current PlaneFox listing data shows an average asking price around EUR 670,000, with observed asking prices from EUR 429,000 to EUR 1,560,000. In the used market, the PA-31T Cheyenne is generally valued as a capable legacy twin turboprop, often compared with other pressurized cabin class aircraft where operating cost, maintenance pedigree and avionics fit are decisive.
