About the Piper Seneca

The Piper Seneca (PA-34) is a six-seat piston twin with a defining safety feature: counter-rotating propellers, so there is no critical engine and engine-out handling stays predictable. Launched in 1971, the line runs through the turbocharged Seneca II, III and IV to the current intercooled Seneca V — the popular twin-engine step up for owners who want redundancy without moving to turboprops, cruising around 190 kt.

Produced 1972. Total produced: 4,700.
