About the Piper Comanche

The Piper Comanche (PA-24) is a classic, fast, retractable-gear single — produced 1957-1972 with 180, 250, 260 and 400 hp variants on the same low-wing airframe. The 260 hp Comanche cruises near 160 knots; the rare 400 hp Comanche is one of the fastest piston singles of its era. The Comanche has a devoted owner community and is regarded as one of the best-handling singles of its generation.
