Cherokee Six!

Justinmg,

The -6 is a seriously under rated aircraft - roomy comfortable and refined WITH very long legs, south of France, piece of ease!

If interested do send me a PM as I may just know of a very, very nice one coming on the market, soon.

Club seating for four, passenger door, 10 hours on an overhauled 260 IO540 - good combination of power/fuel consumption/load lifting with the smoothness of a 6 cylinder motor.

I spend a lot of my airborne time hanging upside down behind an AEIO360, 4 cylinder Lycoming. Occassionaly I get to do the same behind a 6 cylinder IO540. The 6 banger is so much more smoother than the 4 cylinder model.

Having recently been reacquainted with the -6 after a long time, I love this aeroplane and it's not remotely aerobatic but it is smooth!
