This Piper Cherokee 6/260 (PA-32-260) is a versatile single-engine aircraft known for its spacious cabin, reliable performance, and utility. It offers a roomy cabin with seating for up to six passengers, making it ideal for families, group travel, or air taxi services. Features a nose baggage compartment and rear. The Cherokee 6/260 typically offers a useful load ranging from 1,400 to 1,633 lbs, allowing it to carry full fuel (84 gallons) and multiple passengers or cargo without exceeding weight limits. Powered by a robust Lycoming O-540-E4B5 engine, the Cherokee 6/260 delivers dependable performance with a cruise speed of approximately 135-140 knots at 14 gph fuel burn. With 84-gallon fuel tanks, it offers excellent range (approximately 488-561 nautical miles with full seats), ideal for cross-country flights. Built on the PA-28 Cherokee airframe, it retains the same easy-to-fly characteristics, making it accessible for pilots transitioning from smaller Cherokees. The fixed landing gear reduces maintenance and insurance costs compared to retractable-gear models like the Piper Lance or Saratoga, making it more economical to own and operate.

About the Piper Cherokee Six

The Piper Cherokee Six (PA-32-260/300) is the original fixed-gear PA-32 — a six-seat single built 1965-1979 with a big cabin, double cargo doors and either a 260 hp or 300 hp Lycoming. It cruises around 145 knots and is the most affordable way into a six-seat Piper, prized for utility, freight and skydiving roles thanks to its big rear door.

Produced 1965–2005. Total produced: 5,000.
