2024 JMB VL3-916 (N785KG) - $435,000

$0.00

This 2024 JMB VL3 Evolution 916iS presents an excellent opportunity to acquire a highly equipped, low-time VL3 without the lead time associated with a new factory build. With approximately ~97 hours on the Hobbs (time will increase as the aircraft is flown), this aircraft offers the performance of the 160 HP turbocharged FADEC Rotax 916iS combined with one of the more desirable cockpit and interior configurations available on the VL3.

N785KG is equipped with the XL cabin configuration, providing additional room and improved accommodation for larger pilots while retaining the visibility, ergonomics, and performance for which the VL3 is known.

The avionics package is equally impressive, featuring dual Garmin G3X 10-inch touchscreen displays, dual ADAHRS, Garmin GTN 650Xi NAV/COM/GPS, GTX 45R transponder, and a Garmin GMC 507 autopilot controller. Additional safety and convenience features include Smart Glide, angle of attack, heated pitot, backup battery for the G3X display, a Galaxy ballistic recovery system, and accidental gear-retraction protection.

Finished in upgraded Limited Edition paint scheme featuring Porsche Silver, Porsche Meteor Grey, and BMW e-Copper, N785KG has a distinctive, premium appearance that complements its latest-generation VL3 performance, well-selected equipment package, and exceptionally low time.
