Model & Market Context
This entry concerns airframe N200AK, a 1980-built Piper PA-31-350 Navajo Chieftain bearing serial number 31-8052180. The airframe is registered in the United States and is held by Rambler Air LLC, a corporate owner based in Anchorage, Alaska, which serves as the operator/home base for the type. Public registry actions and historical transfers beyond the current corporate ownership are not published. Condition assessments and formal valuation for this specific airframe are not published.
The airframe is outfitted in an 8-place commuter/executive layout, reflecting a configuration intended to carry a single pilot and up to seven passengers in a commuter or corporate shuttle role. With a cruise speed of 207 kts and a ferry/mission range of 950 nm, typical operations for this aircraft from its Anchorage base would encompass regional transport, medium-range passenger shuttles, and on-demand executive commutes within the Alaskan and North Pacific operating areas. Cabin and avionics specifics for this serial are not published; maintenance and operational planning for the airframe align with multi-engine, piston-twin practices appropriate to Lycoming TIO-540 installations and the airframe’s 24,000 ft service ceiling.
The Piper PA-31-350 Navajo Chieftain of this vintage occupies a niche as a small, twin-engine commuter/executive transport offering moderate trans-regional range and useful passenger capacity. The combination of an 8-place cabin, near-950 nm range and 207 kt cruise positions it for operators needing efficient medium-range flexibility rather than high-speed or large-cabin comfort. Market considerations for a 1980-built airframe typically include careful review of engine overhaul status, airframe logbooks, and corrosion or aging-related maintenance records; such specifics for N200AK are not published.
