I had one exactly like that but had to sell it after a few years, years later i now have another one. Great little planes

16:37 clear prop

Great plane and runs great! I always love the look of the older short wing planes. I hope to own one some day.

late here. really nice job. Is there a vid of takeoff / landing a minute of each'd be great , just as a fun Utube bit.

Maybe I missed it somewhere, but would you mind saying how much you sold it for?

Entonces que todos esos empresarios que usan la inteligencia artificial para reemplazar a sus trabajadores , que sus productos se los compren la inteligencia artificial , jajajajajajaj

I flew a Colt with a Tri Pacer power plant when I was a student you had to reduce power on climb to keep from over rev ing the engine great little plane no flaps so landing was easy just line up and control altitude with the throttle sink was like a rock

Diesel your corn. It'll cut down on deer eating it.

Might be a mistake showing this. Next thing we hear is "BAN THE HOG TRAPS.THEY ARE A DANGER TO THE DEER".

Damn hogs cause these problems. Kudo's for checking the trap quickly and letting her go!

These are awesome planes. Here’s mine located in Idaho. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GhBYLeUxh_I.html

So just a bullshit-talk video with no flying.

Is it still for sale? How much?

What is that crank on the middle of the front windshield up top

I have a 1958 PA 22-160 in storage, it only has 508 hr's TTSN on the engine and air frame. Its red and white.

Got my Private in 1969, at age 16, in a Colt. Great fun plane..

Why are you selling that awesome little plane???

What a Sweet Little Tricycle Gear Airplane

I took my flying lesson in a tripacer in 1966 in Iowa. Then in 1967 went in with a group and bought a Cheeroke6 new from factory.

One thing about this airplane I remember is that power off it comes out of the sky like a brick, it taught me to fly tight patterns! You have a really nice looking plane 😁🛫

ive used ruth stout for my potatoes this year which is very exciting! I used deep mutch of wood chips as we get them for free! same basic principle! exciting stuff lol

my solo was in one of those wow

I also put up a electric fence, to meny squrals, rabbits, ground hogs, so 3 strands of hot wire with a solar box and none of them varments wants to play with that hot wire! They know, they can smell it! It works, just remember to put the bottom wire 3 to 4" from above the ground you don't want them digging under!😉

Beautiful playing always my favorite

Great memories of our 57, n5812d. Its been about 25 years and I don't recall it having flaps,. Maybe it did. I do recall the trim lever.

I remember these being imported into the UK through my local airfield and it was the first type I ever flew in. That's where my love of flying was born

BELO AVIÃO PARECIDO COM ANTIGO PAULISTINHA USADO AQUI no BRASIL 👍👍 🇧🇷

Piper Volta PA 22

First passenger flight was in a '57 Tri-Pacer N5409D bought new by my uncle in Midland TX. He went on to buy three new Pipers (a Comanche, a Super Cub and one of the first Cherokee 140s) and inspired a love of aviation. I went on to become an FAA ASEL pilot @ 18 and also an A&P in the late 70s.

A nice machine! I would love to fly it.

Myself and my Stepdad used to fly one in central Texas, down close Columbus Tx. We’d fly into Houston and back every day just about for work we were doing down there. This was back in 81, I had just got out of the Navy. He was a instructor and he was teaching me how to fly. We just lost him in 2021 to a blown out heart. This brings back some great memories thank you for that, was a great plane and a better man than I could ever be. God bless.

Aahhh the venerable Fly Chaser!

I had to so a spin check in a 1957 Piper TriPacer to get a rating on one in Australia. Not to worried about that really as the aeroplane spins well..

Built a model of this plane when I was a kid! Loved it...saw a few arrive on the ramp at the old Tilford's PBI back in the '70's.

Very well maintained tri-pacer. Purchased a 1956 PA-22-150 in 1977, put almost 400 hrs on it, was a very good back country flyer . Seeing this brings back memories.

I did an interior on one many years ago at my local airport.I did it not long after getting my A&P.I needed a job working on planes.

When I was a kid we had a share in one and we used to fly around to relatives homes in it. Three kids, the baby on the little cargo shelf behind the back seats. It last was in Texas and no longer listed as registered. Had a lot of fun in that.

My first flight on a small plane was as a boy on one of these which wasn't at all impressive. Very cheap and poor quality.

Does it have the aux fuel tank under the back seat?

I love the tri-pacer. Flew a 1959 with a 150hp in it. N5900D. Lost track of it.

This airplane will do everything a Skyhawk can do.

I have one .A great plane for having fun. But all i got is negative from you.Anything good about it?

My Dad used to have a share in one of those. I always loved flying it with my Dad after I got my pilot's license through Air Cadets. I always liked coming into land high on approach and side slip her in for landing. (This always makes my Dad uncomfortable when I do this! ..lol He prefers the 'normal' approach for landing!) Loved her short stubby wings. Yours looks very well maintained. Thanks for the show. Keep her straight and level. Kalvin, New Brunswick, Canada

USed to teach on them. Use flaps 10 degrees for take off and approaches when under 90 mph. Steep turns all over 100 mph.

I learned to fly i a Tripacer PA 22 160 in Denver Co

A friends of mine has one with the exact same paint scheme. His is in showplane condition and I believe it won a trophy at Airventure. Great plane, underrated.

First plane I ever flew in. The next time dad owned it.

Great airplane but do not get complacent. A friend of mine along with his wife and son died in a stall/spin. The aircraft was at Max gross and wind light and variable. Temp around 95F at an elevation of approximately 1000. They perform really well for what they are but low to the ground when they’re done flying, you and the occupants are done as well.

This is the best I've seen so far

In about 1959 or so, my family (dad and brothers) were well into General Aviation. They bought a nearly new Tripacer of very similar color in Dallas. I can't help but wonder if you would have any way of knowing if your beautiful Tripacer was ever owned by Joe, Jack or Bill Wallace in Dallas (all deceased now). Brings back wonderful memories. We stopped flying after my parent's divorced and I never got my license. But my son now owns and flies a Piper Arrow, P28R and I love flying it. - GeezerWheels ("Ray" in SW Colorado).
