Modified 1973 Grumman American AA-5 Traveler Listed for Sale at $89,500
Why It MattersDetailed pre-owned piston-single listings with documented upgrades and STCs reflect continued demand for well-equipped legacy general-aviation aircraft in the used market.
A 1973 Grumman American AA-5 Traveler carrying an asking price of $89,500 has been selected as a featured listing by Aircraft For Sale. The airframe shows 4,195 total hours, a 906-pound useful load and a 37-gallon fuel capacity, with an unleaded autogas STC installed to reduce operating costs.
The aircraft is powered by a Lycoming O-320-E2G engine upgraded to 160 hp via STC, with 234 hours since major overhaul, turning a Sensenich propeller — itself STC'd to eliminate a McCauley airworthiness directive — showing approximately 773 hours since new.
The panel includes a Garmin GNC-355 IFR GPS/comm unit, a Garmin GI-106A indicator, a uAvionix tailBeacon for ADS-B Out compliance, an Insight GEM-602 graphic engine monitor, a JPI Fuel Scan 450 fuel flow computer, and a PS Engineering PMA-600M audio panel with marker beacons and four-place intercom.
The exterior is finished in white with a gray lower section and black accent stripes, complemented by Pulselite strobes, while the interior features red seating, red side panels, red carpets and burled walnut paneling. The aircraft has been hangared, with all logs and records reported intact.
