Description
With its specialized modifications for photography and cooling system improvements, EC-IHY offers a unique blend of classic Golden Eagle performance and modern aerial surveying capabilities.
This 1981 Cessna 421C Golden Eagle (Tail #EC-IHY) is a highly versatile, well-maintained multi-engine piston aircraft currently positioned in Tenerife, Spain. Recently completing its last inspection in August 2025 with no maintenance due, this pressurized twin is mission-ready for both business travel and specialized aerial surveying.

Performance & Efficiency: Powered by twin 375 HP Teledyne Continental GTSIO-520-N engines with approximately half their TBO remaining (899/784 hours SMOH).
Mission Ready: Certified for high-definition aerial photography with a dedicated fuselage modification for camera installation.
Modernized Avionics: Features a robust IFR suite including dual Garmin GNS 530 Nav/Com/GPS units, TAS (Traffic Advisory System), and weather radar.
Strategic Enhancements: Equipped with Vortex Generators for improved low-speed handling, spoiler systems, and an increased maximum weight STC for higher utility.
