Is Piper Arrow safe?
Reliability, sturdy construction, and gentle flight characteristics make the Piper Cherokee and Arrow favorites among aircraft owners and the flight training community. The Piper Arrow is a great choice for pilots in training who have little experience with complex aircraft. The design of the aircraft help pilots in easy transition from a training aircraft to a single with retractable landing gear and a controllable-pitch propeller.Piper touted the Arrow as the perfect airplane for pilots transitioning to high-performance, retractable-gear airplanes. The Arrow is still that. But watch that gear. In high-power, low-airspeed configurations, the system might either delay retraction or lower the gear at an unwanted time.
