Piper Lance

Just remember that the room in the cabin comes from moving the baggage
bulkhead back. The overall dimension of the plane is longer, but all
of the length is in an extended cowl which moves the propeller/spinner
farther out for CG purposes. The rear seats in the 250 are already as
far back as they can go. The front edge corresponds with the wing spar.


You can get jump seats for the 260 if you aren't carrying baggage. In any
case, the cabin IS larger in the 260.

I work at a repair shop and all the mechanics and even the people in the
office seem to hate them. They seem to be fuel hogs, are very tight to work
on (esp the turbo model) and people always say bad things about the T tail.
No personaly experience here, if they are disliked, they should be cheaper
and that would just make it a better buy and long as you can live with the
way it work, why not. Somebody bought the AMC Gremlins when they were new
right? Not saying the planes are Gremlins though.

I have just finsihed my Instrument rating and it is about time to move up
to
soemthing faster that hauls more than my wonderful Piper Cherokee 140. An
interetsing possibility is a Piper Lance or Turbo Lance. I am open to
comments and hope to get some!

I would look at a Cherokee 6 300. I have seen some with 7 seats in them
(one child seat) they look to be big inside. I dont know anything about
them, but i hear good things.
