About the Piper Dakota
The Piper Dakota (PA-28-236) is the high-power, fixed-gear Cherokee — a 235 hp Lycoming O-540 in the standard PA-28 airframe. The result is a cruise of about 140 knots and a useful load materially higher than the Archer's, making the Dakota the practical hauler of the PA-28 family. Production was relatively short, so the used market is thinner than for Warriors and Archers.
