The well respected Piper Arrow has been produced since 1967 and has seen a variety of

airframe configurations from the old ‘Hershey Bar’ or slab wing to the now familiar taper wing, from conventional tail to T-tail and now back to conventional or what some call ‘straight’ tail.

 

In the early days it sported a 180HP normally aspirated engine but later variants saw a

200HP non-turbocharged Lycoming or a 200HP turbocharged Continental, the former being popular with flying schools and new PPLs and the latter spending most of their time as high altitude, high speed tourers for people who wanted to go fast and didn’t mind the use of an

oxygen mask in the thin-air levels.

 

The subject aircraft, G-FROS, was born in 2005 and shows the very latest in Piper’s Glass Panel cockpit with the Avidyne Entegra flat panel displays that handle Primary and Multi-functions plus Engine Indication and Lean Assist.

 

This aircraft is currently in private hands in the UK but the more forward thinking flying schools, particularly those in the USA, are now buying Avidyne equipped Arrows for advanced training as they show students a cockpit more akin to their eventual professional workplace.

 

G-FROS is IFR equipped and, for those who follow fashion, it also has CMAX Electronic Flight Charts that display on the Avidyne Multi Function Display.

 

This aircraft also has a couple of ubiquitous Garmin GNS430’s, the usual IFR equipment, a Collision Avoidance System and a Stormscope to give it that final ‘wow-factor’.

 

There are a few things it is not capable of; it cannot make a cup of tea, it cannot answer the telephone and it cannot control the Lottery numbers, but nothing in life is perfect.

 

Whether you are a private individual looking to move to a complex type with state-of-the art gizmos or a Flying School that wants to offer the best available, this aircraft has much to offer.
