About the Piper Arrow
The Piper Arrow (PA-28R) is the retractable-gear, 200 hp Cherokee — Piper's classic complex-rating trainer and a faster cross-country single than the fixed-gear Archer. Powered by a 200 hp Lycoming IO-360, it cruises around 137 knots, with the Turbo Arrow III/IV adding turbocharging and higher-altitude performance. The Arrow IV introduced the T-tail. With thousands in flight schools for complex/high-performance endorsements, the Arrow has a deep used market.
Produced 1967–2014. Total produced: 8,000.
