About the Piper Arrow

The Piper Arrow (PA-28R, also called the Cherokee Arrow) is the retractable-gear, 200-hp member of the PA-28 family. It is the classic complex trainer for the commercial certificate, adding constant-speed prop and retractable gear to the familiar Cherokee handling. Variants include the Arrow II, the longer-body Arrow III, the T-tail Arrow IV, and the Turbo Arrow III/IV with a turbocharged 200-hp engine for better high-altitude cruise. Typical cruise is around 137 knots, faster than any fixed-gear Cherokee.

Buying a Used Piper Arrow

Every Piper Arrow faces a mandatory 2,000-hour overhaul, so the single biggest factor in used price is how much time remains before that overhaul is due — a fresh-overhaul airframe can be worth a large share of the $30,000 overhaul cost more than one approaching its limit.

What to check before buying

  • Time to overhaul — hours and years remaining to the 2,000-hour limit; this dominates resale value more than total time.
  • Logbook completeness — continuous, gap-free maintenance records; missing logs cut value and complicate financing.
  • Damage history — any prior accident, hard landing or blade strike; cross-check the registration against accident databases.
  • Avionics — a glass panel vs steam gauges materially changes price.
  • Pre-buy inspection — always commission an independent inspection by a type-experienced mechanic before money changes hands.

Frequently Asked Questions — Piper Arrow

What is the difference between the Arrow II, III and IV?
The Arrow II added a longer fuselage and wingspan for more cabin room. The Arrow III refined the wing and fuel system. The Arrow IV switched to a T-tail, which changed low-speed handling and is a love-it-or-hate-it feature for many buyers. Turbo Arrow III and IV versions add a turbocharged Continental engine.
How fast is a Piper Arrow?
A normally aspirated Arrow cruises around 137 knots; a Turbo Arrow holds higher true airspeeds at altitude. All are four-seat aircraft on a 200-hp engine with a constant-speed propeller.
Is the Piper Arrow a good complex trainer?
Yes — its retractable gear, constant-speed prop and predictable Cherokee handling make it one of the most common aircraft used for the commercial certificate and complex endorsement. Budget for the higher insurance and gear-system maintenance that come with any retractable.
Does the Arrow have the PA-28 wing-spar AD?
The retractable PA-28R airframe is subject to the same family of wing-spar inspection requirements. Verify spar-AD compliance, gear-system condition and engine time before purchase.
