N82448 Aircraft Overview
N82448 is a PIPER Piper Chieftain registered in the United States with serial number on file. Turboprop aircraft combine the reliability of turbine engines with the fuel economy of propeller-driven flight, making them the preferred platform for short-haul operations and unpaved-strip access. The registered owner holds the certificate as a corporation entity based in Anchorage, AK. The aircraft received its FAA airworthiness certificate on Mar 28, 1979, maintaining continuous certification for 47 years.
Piper Chieftain Market Position
The Piper Chieftain is a twin-engine piston aircraft that served commuter airlines, charter operators, and corporate flight departments from the 1970s through the 1990s. Lycoming TIO-540 engines power the type. The Chieftain's 10-seat cabin and cargo capability made it the workhorse of short-haul piston operations.
Performance Profile
The Piper Chieftain cruises at approximately 210 knots with a range of 860 nautical miles. While slower than jets on longer legs, turboprops are more fuel-efficient on missions under 500 nautical miles. Power comes from 2x Lycoming LTIO-540-J2BD. The aircraft operates effectively at altitudes up to 24000 feet.
Mission Profile
Turboprops serve missions where runway access matters more than speed: rural airstrips, mountain airports, island operations, and routes under 600 miles where the time difference versus a jet is marginal. The Piper Chieftain seats up to 10 passengers and often requires less than 3,000 feet of runway.
Charter Authorization
N82448 operates under a Part 135 certificate held by FEJES GUIDE SERVICE LIMITED, authorizing on-demand charter operations. Contact us for availability and routing.
Insider Note
Turboprops burn roughly 40% less fuel per hour than comparable light jets. On legs under 400 miles, the total trip time difference is often less than 20 minutes once you factor in taxi, climb, and descent. The cost savings can be substantial over a year of regular flying.
