There are a lot of Cherokees flying, and they are honest airplanes for a reasonable price. There is a superb support group (Cherokee Pilots Assn) and parts are readily available plus it's not hard to find mechanics that know how to maintain them. I've got a '69 180. Whenever anyone asks about it, I describe it as a flying Buick. Everyone knows how to fix it. Parts are reasily available. Good IFR platform. Good VFR and IFR learning aircraft Unless you do something *really* stupid, you'll live thru almost landing (intended or otherwise) It's not a sportscar, not really spiffy Most of the one-time ADs have already been taken care of. Sounds just like a Buick. On the other hand, to a non-pilot, owning *any* airplane is impressive! |
