Yes - Plan on putting some weight in the aft baggage compartment. If you
guys have any size to you at all, I'd expect to put at least 80 lbs back
there. It flies and handles on the ground much nicer loaded in the back
half of the envelope.

It looks like I will have a mission to pick up a PA32-300 on
Thurs.
Can
anyone point me to an online copy of the flight maual, or perhaps
some
of
the pertinent information? I've got a couple of hours in a
PA32-260
some
years ago, and will have a copy of the manual available when I
pick
up
the airplane, however I would like to prepare myself somewhat.
Any
warnings or items I should watch out for?

Al, if you need pages from a manual, let me know, I can scan them
and
email them to you.
Where will you be picking it up and flying it to?

Thanks John, I'd appreciate that, amybe just one of the intro
specification pages, best rate, gross weight, etc. Also, I just got
a
fax, The aircraft is a:

1974 PIPER CHEROKEE 6/300, S/N: 32-7440103, N77RH, 1880 TT, 10
SPOH,
Garmin GNS-430, All Logs, No Damage.

The probable new owner and I will be moving it from Bend, Ore, SO7,
to
Roseburg, KRBG, thursday afternoon.

I've got 1k hrs in a TU206, so I'm probably used to the right
rudder
requirement.

A different beast than the Cessna - sounds like a nice plane. Watch
not
to
exceed forward CG limits in the 300...

Aha, would full fuel and two 200lb pilots do that? I've got two
collapsible
plastic water jugs, @ 5 gals each, if I need them.
