New (old) bird
Well my partners & I are officially broke, again. We picked up our 1966
Cherokee Six today. I got my checkout & gave 1 partner the beginning of his. Compared to our 180, it's huge! In a couple weeks we upgrade the panel. One thing that amazes me is the power off sink rate. In the 180, you'd lose about 500-600 feet in a 210 degree turn back to a runway (learning this number from practice up at altitude). Today we tried it and the Six lost 1000 feet easy. Heavy thing. -- CP-ASEL, instrument, CFI
