More details and a link to some pictures of our Arrow

[Jack Allison]

Stuff that I can remember off the top of my head:
- GNS-430 GPS (a hard one to forget...drool drool)
- JPI EDM-700 engine analyzer
- GAMI injectors
- DRE-468 intercom
- KX-155 COM2
- Vertical compass
- 180 SMOH...well, after our return trip, that's more like 195-ish SMOH
- Less than 3000 TTAF
- Speed mods: Wing root fairings, aileron/flap/stabilator gap seals,
gear lobe fairings, hubcaps, flush fuel drains. On the wish list:
Lopresti tips with landing lights.
- Leather interior in great shape.
- High back seats all around
- Great paint
- Factory single axis autopilot which works ok.
- Complete and detailed logs
- Several ACF-50 corrosion treatments performed over the years
- Piper SB 1006 performed in '99. This is the wing spar cap inspection
where the tanks get pulled.
- New fuel pump and small spinner bracket from last annual.
- A couple of recurring ADs permanently fixed. Can't remember the
numbers but the ones re: gear side brace studs and oil lines have been
permanently fixed.

On the flight home, we burned between 8-10 GPH and our TAS was upwards
of 140 kts. Ground speed sucked much of the time as we were fighting 40
kt. winds.

This is easily the best of the Arrows we'd looked at.

Wow! What a beauty! The TT really shows (at least from what you
can see in the pictures).

Are those pictures from the field where the plane was purchased?
.... because I don't remember MCC being that high (5,700') ;-)

My Mooney has a JPI too. I love it to death! I can't imagine life with
out it. I also bought the Fuel Flow add on. I can manage my gas much
better with it. It also helps when you're flying in the more remote
areas of Mexico and don't have a lot of extra gas available.

Wow! That is an unusually fine example of an Arrow. You were very
lucky to find it for sale. I've seen some equally nice ones, but they
are their owner's babies and hardly ever come up for sale. Great
mechanicals, excellent modern panel, great paint, nice interior.
Usually in the market you get to pick one or two of the four.

You done good!

NICE arrow Jack,

One thing missing! A second door!

Couldn't resist from a Sundowner owner.

And not only was I at FTG this past Saturday, I stopped in to
see Shane and the bunch. Must have missed you by *that* much!

bummer

Are you going to take the Advanced Pilot Seminar (that GAMI offers) on LOP
operations?

Well worth it!!

Looks like a really nice, WELL equipped Arrow. The only thing missing for
extra safety in IMC operations would be either a backup electric AI (which I
recommend) or a backup vacuum source. Either in my opinion would be a
better (and smaller) investment than the fancy new wing tips.

Enjoy your new bird!

Way to go, Jack! (Tell that ugly guy to get out from in front of the plane,
will ya? He's blocking the view! :-)

One thing I noticed from the pictures: The push-to-talk buttons are on the
*right* side of the yokes, sticking up.

I've never seen that before. Usually they're on the *left* side of the
yoke, sticking forward, like pistol triggers.

Did the seller explain that at all? They must've been a royal bitch to
install that way...

PTT on pilot side in my cherokee is on the left side of the yoke and
also sticking up. There's a second PT switch much like the pistol
trigger you mention. It's the cut-off for the autopilot.

Might be the same on the Arrow?

Ya, who is that clown and how come he's smiling so much?

The PTT is actually on the left side of the yoke, where your trigger
finger would be. What you're seeing on the right side is the playback
button for the DRE intercom. It does look like a PTT though.

"Playback button"?

It's pretty clear to me that you've now got WAY too many toys to play
with...

Yeah... "playback"... like on MS Flight Sim... if you fly over something
that you want to see again... or if you make a really great landing you can
"save" it to memory, then when you want it do it again, you just hit the
"playback" button! :)

think digital recorder for clearances Jay :)
