Piper Lance pros/cons?

Sorry, It's the Piper Owner society I'm a member of....

Will have to consider the other one as well then maybe...?

"Cherokee Chat" -- an on-line group of Cherokee Pilots Association
owners -- is worth its weight in gold to us. You can find an answer
to ANYTHING there.

At the other end of the spectrum, the magazine that comes with
membership is so amateurish and puny as to be laughable -- but that
chat room is worth every dime Terry Lee Rogers charges.

the checklist...



That's rubbish. Unless you call flying stable and smooth "funny". It's
because the tail is not in the slipstream that it isn't effected by power
changes, gear and flaps.

I think it flies just like an Arrow except slightly longer and more
sensitive to CG changes.

Also, remember there is a T-tail and non-T-Tail verson of the Lance.

Illinois.

There is also one for sale in North Carolina that I know of if you're on the
east coast.
