About the Piper Cherokee 235

The Piper Cherokee 235 (PA-28-235, later sold as the Charger and Pathfinder) is the big-engine hauler of the constant-chord Cherokee line. A 235-hp Lycoming O-540 and wingtip tanks holding extra fuel give it a remarkable useful load — it can famously carry close to its own empty weight, lifting four adults, baggage and full fuel on its 84-gallon system. The 1973 Charger added a fuselage stretch for more legroom, and the 1974-77 Pathfinder refined the windows and cabin. It is the predecessor of the tapered-wing Dakota.

Produced 1964–1975.
