Emeraude CP301a 32,500A once in a lifetime opportunity to purchase a beautiful 1958 Piel Emeraude that 5 years ago benefited from a ground up restoration from the late Brian Mayo. Always hangared and professionally maintained. Currently hangared in Ashford. First to see will buy.

Long range tanks (120 litres returning 100knts @20lphr), Mode S Transponder, 8.33 Spacing VHF, hand stitched leather seats, carpeted rear shelf, modern fire extinguisher, new cover, certified USB charger, new brakes, new magnetos, top end overhaul - too much to mention.

The restoration was a 25year project by the previous owner which saw the aircraft taken back to the airframe, the wooden structure was repaired or replaced as required and then re built / glued, brand new fabric, new professional paint & interior. It is as close as you will ever get to a new aeroplane. The aircraft is paired with a very smooth & economical Continental C90.

Total time since rebuild: 145 hrs

It is the most delightful aeroplane to fly. The only reason I am selling is to help fund a PC12 Type Rating as I now have my commercial license. Very low running costs and a great long distance tourer, I have been as far as the Scilly Isles to Germany in her.
