1989 Socata TB21 Turbo Trinidad
The Socata TB-21 Trinidad TC is well known as one of the most capable and comfortable high-performance touring aircraft of its class. Combining a spacious cabin with strong cruise performance, turbocharged capability, and excellent cross-country characteristics, the TB-21 remains a highly respected travelling aircraft for private owners and IFR pilots alike.
This particular aircraft benefits from a well-balanced IFR avionics suite including a Garmin GTN750Xi, Garmin GNS430, Garmin G5 HSI, KAP-150 autopilot with altitude preselect, Stormscope weather detection system, and engine monitoring via JPI EDM-700. The avionics configuration provides solid situational awareness and practical operational capability for IFR operations.
Powered by the turbocharged Lycoming TIO-540-AB1AD engine rated at 250 hp, the aircraft offers strong performance especially at higher altitudes, while maintaining the comfortable flying characteristics for which the Trinidad series is known.
The aircraft presents itself in attractive overall condition and reflects continuous maintenance and ongoing technical care. The current ARC is valid until 15 August 2026.
