December 13, 200421 yr Has Piper ever made a Cherokee class plane with retractable gear? If so, what is it called? Has one ever been modeled for FS2004, payware or freeware?
December 13, 200421 yr Author PA 28-180 Arrow?There was a freeware one for FS2002. Not sure if it works in FS2004. -
December 13, 200421 yr The Arrow is a retracable gear Cherokee with a constant speed prop. Aside from an air intake port on the side of the cowling, they look identical to the Cadets and Warriors.----------------------------------------------------------------John S.

December 13, 200421 yr In addition many of them have T-tails. There are also turbocharged versions. Standard a/c for CPL training in the UK.

Besides the Arrow, the Lance was a retract version of the Cherokee 6. Later, the Saratoga was a Lance with the new tapered wingform.Dan
December 13, 200421 yr The Arrow may look identical to the Cherokee/Warrior...but its a different bird at touchdown! Way heavier! Shes a real 'power on' at touchdown aircraft. Especially the T-tail variants.I loved flying the Arrow during my CPL. Great fun. Feels like your going like sh1t of a shovel too, after flying the Warrior...even if you are actually only about 20 knots faster!I do indeed wish that FSD or Carenado (or indeed a superb freeware designer!) would bring us a brilliant one for FS2004.Al.
December 13, 200421 yr Well, Al, perhaps you won't mind us doing a Piper Arrow III instead. It is in our plans for 2005, along with my Piper Dakota, and one other Piper SEL. ;-)Regards,http://www.dreamfleet2000.com/gfx/images/F...R_FORUM_LOU.jpg
December 13, 200421 yr Author Well I don't mind - Warrior III and Bonanza A36 - talk about a "dream fleet" :-lol -
