About the Piper Saratoga
The Piper Saratoga (PA-32) is the six-seat, club-seating member of the Cherokee family — a stretched single built to haul families and light business loads in comfort. The line runs from the fixed-gear Cherokee Six through the retractable Lance to the Saratoga, Saratoga SP and the modern Saratoga II HP and II TC, available normally aspirated or turbocharged on the proven Lycoming IO-540.
Produced 1980–2009. Total produced: 2,200.
