Why PIPER PLANES are so Good

Piper is king !
Thanks for the video!

piper is such a king
Thank you for this video!

As a former CFI. I preferred teaching in a PA over the C-172.

Own a Piper Tomahawk PA 38-112 and love every single minute of it. Does what I want for my mission. Plus burn 3.8 to 5.5 per gallon with fuel prices going up. I'll just leave earlier to meet up.

I really want to own a Comanche 400... Has a io-720 that is an 8 cylinder engine, it's the freaking hot rod of the skies! Not to mention, it's pretty darn quick!!

You forgot the seneca

nice commercial 👍🏾

Thanks for the great video! Please do one for the Mooney.

I always like the PA-28 "Hershey Bar" wing. Straight and simple. I understand the leading edge taper of the later wing design improved stability in a stall.

Can this plane add 3 blade probes ?? Then will go faster . Right ??

Gostei muito Ricardo Brasil juiz de fora

Nice video amd information but in the final part as a "Long Distance Traveler" you forget the Piper PA-42 Cheyenne, a nice aircraft with excellent power ans a long range capability, keep going!!

Good video, but you forgot the King of all the piston Pipers the Navajo.

Thank you for this review, it covered most of the bases. I flew the Arrow III to get my commercial ticket in 1979, great little aircraft if a tad slow. The Piper PA-44 Seminole is a very docile aircraft, can chuck 4 adults in it averaging 180 pounds but couldn't add full fuel, and it is slow for a twin, may be 155 to 160 knots depending upon OAT. A friend of mine had a Cherokee 6 then a T-Tail lance, the latter was a beautiful aircraft inside, very nice. In general most Pipers are docile but slow, the fast ones today are insanely expensive, could pick up an old twin for much less.

because they're made in freedom loving Florida!

I was going to buy a 67 I think it was Piper Comanche until the bank backed out on me because of the history of the plane couldn't get or find the title. Now fast-forward two years later I've been thinking about the Cessna 206

Pre-Owned Piper Matrix seems right choice; 6 pax + 2400km range🛫🤓

That is positively the most annoying, forced, artificial and inane voice I have ever heard for a documentary video. Massive fail and all-around stupid, detracting immeasurably from a worthy topic.

I love my archer 2, in 20 yrs it has flown me from coast to coast. Not fast but economical. Still better than flying commercial today with all the hassles.

I shouldn't be writing this comment here because my favorit airplane is Piper but, what the heck, I do! Piper is the best of the best talking about aircraft. The one thing I love about Pipers is the wide range of options, quality and of course, sturdiness. For me, Pipers are the "superman" of all personal aircraft. I love Pipers all, from PA18 and Tripacer to Malibu 600. Yes!

I hate the computer voiceovers

At least the wings fall off only some of the time.

You forgot the greatest Piper Aircraft EVER the J3 cub

I used to fly a Warrior 160 HP. It wasn't the fastest, nor had the best interior, but I liked it just as well. The best part of it was the heater. It was so efficient, I actually had to turn it down. I remember flying Cessna aircraft with full heat and still seeing my breath.

Comanche is worth the effort. Twin Comanches are especially sweet machines.

No mention of the Navajo line?

Hell yeah, Comanches! Funny you highlight our avid community 😎

Still own my 1980 Piper Aztec F.

3000 NM range 8 passengers on budget?

The M600 is also ~half the price of a TBM, even with all the latest from Garmin!! It may not be as fast, still a big step up from a piston plane at a more affordable price!! JMHO --gary

The lance with T tail is not an easy plane with low time pilots. That’s due to the high Tv tail sits above the prop wash.

If i had the money i would get a piper aerostar 700P

Comanche is unbeatable even today

Except they have an issue with their wings falling off...

Sweet video, love the content!

Great 'planes...!

Absolutely love my Comanche 180. 62 years young!

I just sold my 1975 Warrior. I could sit on those shitty old seats for hours. They were so comfortable. Front or back! Yet when I sit in many modern cars, I can’t wait to get out of those seats. They really are great planes to fly or ride in.

❤

I'm gonna be taking my 1st flight in the piper for an entry flight in so excited !

You never have heard of a mooney; losing a wing in a turbulent environment. Check Piper's sad safety record. Many tears.

I'm thoroughly convinced you know nothing about aircraft. The videos you show constantly misrepresent the aircraft you are talking about.

My dad has a archer 2

Zinc Chromate was a check in the option box for PA-28’s, PA-32’s, PA-34’s and PA-44’s. Yes the Comanche was superior, in many ways, but most buyers selected Zinc coating when buying the aircraft made in the south.

Come to the Piper Aviation Museum in Lock Haven Pa.! See the real history of how a small town in Pennsylvania built 75000 airplanes! We have the true history of Piper Aircraft. I'm a proud employee of our museum.
