I am putting Sally, my 1973 Cherokee 140, up for sale. Here are a few features:

3870 TT, 474 SMOH
160 hp
Last compressions: 74, 76, 74, 78
propeller overhauled in 2016
new paint, 2016 (by Elevation Aviation, old paint completely removed)
new exhaust system, 2017
strobes
Hoerner wingtips
Garmin GNC 250 comm/GPS
Garmin 320A transponder
KX-155 nav/com with GS
KMA-24 audio panel

Sally served as the platform for an NPR story by Audie Cornish (now host of All Things Considered) in the summer of 2006. You can hear that story here. A related photo is below. https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5589309

I'll get some more photos and post later today.

Catherine, I loved that NPR piece with you, Audie Cornish and Sally. Most excellent. I wish I could take Sally home, myself.

Wow, Catherine. After taking you safely to Chicago and back just a few days ago, what a way to treat Sally smile! Just kidding of course!

Sally looks like a really nice Cherokee. I know you have flown her all over the midwest and east based on your posts here. Are you planning to get something else or just fly Wilbur? I know there are several members that have more than one airplane, but I have a difficult time in just finding time to fly one even though I am retired now.

Good luck with the sale. I know the decision was probably pretty difficult.

Stacey, I'm really going to miss her. For us to travel, especially in the summer, she just doesn't have the kid of useful load for the three of us to be gone for weeks at a time. I am completing the purchase of another airplane (to have in addition to Wilbur) but want to make sure the airplane is in the hangar before I complete the sale of Sally. It's close enough that I think I'm safe listing her.

Sally is a wonderful plane, and worth every bit of what CC is asking.

Increased useful load, maybe a Cessna 206 or 210?

My guess is a Cherokee 180/235 or an Arrow. wink
