The non-retractable version of the Arrow is the Archer, which is also
missing the constant-speed prop.

In my opinion, the only advantage the Arrow has over the Archer is range
due to the ability to load more fuel. I'm not sure that advantage is
worth the extra cost in maintenance and insurance.


Is the Arrow any faster than the Archer?
