1987 Socata TB10

General description

Single-owner Socata TB10 G-BNRA based at Kemble will be sold VAT-free with fresh annual (in progress expected release end of January 2026) and ARC (valid in August 2026) but putting it up for any advance enquiries as I will be losing my Class 2 due to long-term medication. The aircraft has currently an active CAMO maintenance program with IAE. It is an 1987 serial number 772. A lot of restoration in 2024 and 2025 (see remarks). The aircraft is regularly flown and will be until sold. It is fully certified and has flown to EU without any issues as well.

Interior

Minor wear & tear, partly restored.

Exterior

I was planning to complete the restoration by giving it a complete new paint job as the paint on the top cowling, wings and elevator is very thinned but the aircraft has been always hangared and there is not a spec of corrosion, neither external nor internal (inspected in 2025).

Avionics

Comes with all the IFR instrumentation and night flying equipment. In the 1990s it has been added a GPS unit GNS430 (non-waas) and GTX328 mode-S transponder - the modifications have been re-certified in 2025 by IAE. It comes with the latest Jeppesen 8MB data card.

Options

Remarks

The engine has been tested for compression in 2023 and had a normal results (in photo) and has only done cca 120 hours since. The overall performance in cruise and climb is about 3-4% less than what’s stated in POH and oil consumption is normal around half of quart every 10 hours which I have determined after multiple flight tests including continuous climb to 12000 feet and long distance cruise. The fuel consumption long term average 38.7 l\hour. I can also share all documentation which is valid including a new radio license, rescue beacon registration, etc.
Brand new brake cylinders installed in 2025 - all 4. Parking brake serviced in 2025. Brand new pneumatic AI instrument installed in 2024. Static pitot tubing replaced in 2024. Struts resealed in 2024. All the electrical terminals refurbished and all warning lights and instruments operational.
All the service logs are available I can share all of it with interested buyers over email.
