When I bought this airplane 9 months ago it was broken. It sat for 24 years while it wasn't 100% a broken airplane, it was in need of some major love.

Great plane, I owned 3 of them. My favorite was a 7 seat 300. I flew medivac, freight and tons of my own things. It does have a reasonable conservative flight envelope in calm low altitudes. I have flown many aircraft, piston, turboprop (PT6) and a few jets. The 540 Lycoming is the best. It is the most comfortable AC that I have flown. The big back doors are fantastic. The stability in rough weather is tops. I love the two hershey bar wings over the new tapered long span ones. The prices keep climbing for a reason.

Yes, your right Jimmy. The Cherokee 6 300 is an old dependable workhorse. I've spent many hours flying one back in the 70's. I dropped jumpers out it, cross country hops and hauled lots of cargo, When I could find another pilot to fly it, I made several skydives out of that cargo door. The only incident I had with the 6 300 was a broken belt that drove the alternator. Happened at night on a cross country. Lost battery power. Sure gets dark in there with no lights, and really quiet with no radio. I spent the night and a small airport. Keep up the good work. I enjoy the videos and the crazy banter. Just an old Marine here.
