Piper Cherokees are single engine aircraft that are also some of the most commonly flown airplanes around the world. Starting from the base model, the Piper Cherokee 140 with only 150 hp engine, and then you have the cherokee 160 with 160 hp engine, and featured in this video is the Piper Cherokee 180 with a Lycoming 180 hp engine.
The model in this video is a 1965 Piper cherokee 180, recently purchased by Anthony. This is Anthony's first airplane which he bought to acquire his private pilots license. And he plans to also get his instrument rating and commercial rating in this plane. From just the appearance, the aircraft looks well kept, and the engine has recently been overhauled so Anthony's got more than enough hours left on this airplane.
The interior/cabin space was nice and comfortable. And the aircraft was built to seat 3-4 people comfortably with useful load of over 900 pounds. Although you might find it a little bit narrow once the door shut close. The Piper cherokees line of aircraft also only comes with one door which is on the passenger side.
Below are the performance specs for the Piper Cherokee 180
Engine: 180 HP Lycoming
Climb Rate: 700 fpm
Cruise: up to 140 mph
Range: up to 586 miles
Price: $50k - $80k

I lost the recorded audio sound for this video, hence the wind noise you hear. Sorry about that. Hazard of the job!

@dieselyeti 2 года назад

Can't go wrong with a Cherokee 180 or Archer. Good IFR training platform and decent XC airplane for shorter trips. Btw Mike, that tail was down because the nose strut was extended a bit from being pulled out with the tow bar. Once you get inside the weight will get the nose to settle and it'll sit level. Also, that Cherokee isn't fuel injected so it's an O-360.

@weekendhack.whatsnext 2 года назад

I have a 1969 Cherokee 180 and I can tell you that plane is not sitting normally. The front strut is close to fully extended and the main struts are almost completely compressed to give it that nose up attitude. You should be able to see about 4" of the gear struts on all wheels. I am not sure why it is that way but under normal circumstances those planes sits a lot more level that this one. The owner should check the gas charges on this aircraft. Landing with undercharged mains could cause some additional wear and tear.

@michaelmcginnis6095 2 года назад

Most of my training hours were in a Piper. Its a great plane for solos and takeoff and landings are smooth.If maintenance history is consistent and it has a secondary or auxiliary fuel pump, Cherokees and Warriors are both great planes to purchase in the pre-owned market.

@peterandkodiak9762 Год назад

Your ability to enunciate clearly and explain aircraft components/avionics in greater detail is excellent. I'm a student pilot and looking forward to eventually purchasing an aircraft of this type. A+

@azcharlie2009 2 года назад

My first plane was a Cherokee 180, N7721N. I got my instrument rating in it, even with it's flaky glideslope receiver. The wife and I had a great time with it. But, I was fascinated by the taper wing. Had to have one. In 1985 I bought a 1979 Archer II, N2953U. It is really something special in ground affect. I still own it to this day.

@dennisnbrown 4 месяца назад

I love my Cherokee 180C. A few speed mods and a cruise prop and flies 130kt true. 500 hours in it and have been coast to coast. Great plane and cheap to own and fly. I burn 7.4 gal per hr in cruise at 9500.

What a difference a few years makes. My 1973 Cherokee 180 has the trim wheel down between the seats, all the gauges on the left side, and a nice wide baggage door. Still no fuel injected engine, though.

@AG-qq3zl 2 года назад

Trained in a 180, bought a Cherokee 140 with a 150hp Lycoming. Can't go wrong with any of the Cherokee, they all fly the same. Here is a small note: worked with an engineer at Beechcraft, back when Beech was developing a trainer aircraft they tore a Cherokee 180 apart. This is why the Sundowner has the same profile.

I haven't flown (other than airline) since Feb 82 but I do have a fairly good amount of time in PA-28 180's. While you are most comfortable with the glass cockpit I would feel really comfortable with how that PA-28's panel was outfitted with the old "steam gauges".

@josephwesley1191 Год назад

The Cherokee 180 is a sweet little bird. I trained in a Warrior, awesome airplane. I purchased a 1973 Cherokee with the 160hp STC, love it (I prefer the post 1970 throttle quadrant and trim position of the later Pipers). Warrior glides better but they are both nice planes. My Cherokee with the160 STC cruises at 100 knots to 120 knots depending on conditions and throttle percentage. Great little planes.

Seems like pretty much the same plane, except the trim wheel is on the floor between the seats, seems like every one you talk to did their training in a cessna, after watching this video, I feel a little better now about training in a piper, thanks for the video.

@dieselyeti 2 года назад

I learned in a Piper and have instructed in Pipers & Cessnas. Both are good airplanes to learn in, although the struts on the Piper are a little more forgiving if you plonk it onto the runway when landing.

@realnewsthatmatters9319 2 года назад

I started in NZ 1967 and all was round analogue dials complete with roof type elevator trim so I would feel quite at home but would be lost with glass. but that's progress . I did 195hrs but not flown since late 80's and at 78 that's about to change as I am plugged in for a dual flight soon! it will be interesting to try out my old skills once more. cheers for the vid it was very interesting and worth watching. cheers NZ

@cardinaldriver 2 года назад

Always check that the wing is seated properly within it's belly-pan by pushing wingtip fore and aft putting torsion on the entire wing and undercarriage assembly. It was shocking how many ppl were flying with affected Cherokees that you could literally wiggle the wing at it's root. The AD was a biggie! Off topic a little, I just wanted to comment on a JAW DROPPER of a Garmin setup you have. Right On!

@rebuildrescue 2 года назад

It looks like the front strut is about 3” too high at rest and the mains about 2-3” too low. Likely need seal kits, new fluid and recharged with nitrogen.

@mikenoel4569 2 года назад

Right, Piper designed it to have a flat fore-aft stance on the ground for the shortest take-off roll. The struts in this example need maintenance.

@fuffoon Год назад

I wonder if it will ever be possible to make a family airplane with shoulder room. The one thing I don't like is the cramped side by side. I wonder if there could be a fuselage with lifting body principles to enlarge the cabin. I build competition models so I understand weight. I save grams where possible.

This is a constant chord wing. Later models had a "taper" wing, which changed the characteristics on landing....better glide characteristics and tendency to "float" a bit more in ground affect.
