About the Piper Aerostar
The Piper Aerostar (PA-60, originally Ted Smith Aerostar) is a fast, pressurised piston twin — twin turbocharged Lycoming TIO-540s power it to cruise speeds around 260 knots, faster than most cabin-class twins of its era. With a sleek, slim fuselage and a six-seat pressurised cabin, the Aerostar is the performance flagship of the piston-twin world but requires careful systems expertise. Production ended in 1984; Aerostar conversions (Machen, etc.) modernise systems and add more power.
