    I had a Arrow 2 and have to be honest I was never a fan personally, ended up with a Trinidad TB21 GTS, I think I now have the most roomiest most capable cross country 4 seat IFR tourer in the business, love this channel though and learning other pilots thoughts!.

    • @kristensorensen2219
      @kristensorensen2219 Год назад +2

      Most roomy or roomiest; but not both! 🦃

    • @wayneelliott2462
      @wayneelliott2462 Год назад

      Why not, when manufactures claim that their offering is in the top ten roomiest and that there is one clear leader in that category why is it an issue to phrase it as I have? I ask because I am very keen to understand in case I have overreached with the metaphors.@@kristensorensen2219

    Did my commercial training in the Piper Arrow. It was a great plane for the commercial maneuvers with a ton of good good checklists / procedures to get the maneuvers right. The only thing I didn't like about the Arrow was the difficulty in "hot starts". Granted it might have been my inexperience with fuel injected engines at the time but I didn't have this problem with the other fuel injected airplanes I've flown since.
    Thanks for another great video.

    An F-16 pilot told me one day that he won’t fly if he is ever hungry or pissed off. For me three strikes and I’m out means now I’m pissed off. I never fly hungry because that would distract me because I’d always be thinking about food.

    • @224valk4

    My youngest brother co-owns a 1949 Ryan Navion A, which has a 205hp Continental E-185-9 engine. A great complex transition airplane. The Navion B used a more powerful 260hp Lycoming GO-435-C2 engine. The Models D, E, F, and G used Continentals producing 240, 250, and 260hp. The Model H was a Model G with a 285hp Continental IO-520B engine. Multiple companies over the years then began producing Twin Engine Navions; Comair Twin Navion, manufactured by Riley (and then later Temco), D-16 Bi-Navion with two 150hp Lycoming O-320 engines and strengthened wings, and eventually the Temco D-16A Navion with strengthened wings, two 170hp Lycoming O-340-A1A engines, nacelle tanks and 20 gallon each tip tanks.
    Please fly in one of those.

  • @kmg501
    @kmg501 Год назад +1

    That automatic backup system for landing gear drop is interesting. What if you need to make a emergency controlled crash landing into a field and deliberately want to land on the belly to minimize the likelihood of flopping over forward?

    • @jbw9999
      @jbw9999 Год назад +1

      It has a switch that can be set to disable it. Many Arrows have it permanently disabled now. I would do that myself if I owned one.

    Hi Dakota, greetings from Argentina.
    First of all, I hope you and your family and friends had a nice New Year eve and I also wish you a pleasentfull 2024.
    If you, by the time you (hopefully) read this comment still are in Texas, I´d like to suggest you to contact an American/Mexican pilot and flight instructor called Erasmo "Eddie" Malacara who runs a flight scholl down in the Edimburgh/McAllen region called Eddie Aviation Services. One of his clients/students reasently gave him for FREE a Bellanca, a rare single engine complex aircraft. I´m a long time subscriber to his channel and I´d love to see him interviewed by either you or Bobby with his new airplane. I made the same suggestion to Christy and Dan from "Taking Off" In the Hangar, but it didn´t work out.
    I have to say: I enjoy much more this series when you are the host than when Bobby did; IDK, both of you are pilots, however it feels you have more "empathy" with the interviewee.
    I wish you the best ahead. Cheers from NE Patagonia, Argentina. (a beautifull place). BTW: I learned to fly in a similar platform than the Arrow (an Archer) 42 years ago for whatever that matters.

    The Cardinal is a direct competitor to the Arrow and WAY better IMO.
    Larger cabin, faster , same tail as a Cherokee - and a strutless high wing where you can see into your turns!

    Wait what? Piper is still making Arrow III's today? A few months ago I did the factory tour and absolutely no mention of Arrows.

  • @jamesdrew6978
    @jamesdrew6978 Год назад +3

    Sorry to say that the Piper Arrow III is no longer in production. The Archer (or Archer types (fixed gear)) are in production but according to the lead sales person at Piper they are not going to produce the Arrow because of the change in the regulations pertaining to how pilots can get their complex endorsements using an airplane equipped with a qualifying glass cockpit. So the retractable time is no longer needed for complex endorsements. 😢

    • @logan9684
      @logan9684 Год назад +2

      You wouldn't be able to get your complex endorsement using a TAA aircraft. You can use TAA aircraft time toward the 10 hours needed for your commercial license rather than using a complex aircraft. Which a lot of flight schools usually do due to insurance on complex aircraft. But yeah, there is not much of a market for these trainer complex aircraft anymore due to flight schools not needing them and insurance being very expensive on them for low-time pilots.

    • @jamesdrew6978
      @jamesdrew6978 Год назад

      @@logan9684 Rodger that! You gave a much better explanation. Very spot on. Same effect, Piper isn’t building Arrows because they aren’t needed for the commercial rating due to the use of TAA aircraft fulfilling the requirements. 🤷‍♂️

  • @FlyingNDriving
    @FlyingNDriving Год назад +1

    6:50 this guy needs to shut his mouth. Mooney's way faster (20kts+) and has higher useful load than the arrow. Fuselage is the same width and there's more rear legroom in a Mooney than the Cherokees, plus rear seats recline. I bet he's never been in a Mooney before just regurgitating old wives tales.
