Fs2004 Piper Cherokee Full List Of

Any noted visual variations were minor and are considered to be related to real world production variations or a degree of artistic licence on the part of the developer.

The Cherokee was introduced as a more affordable alternative to Pipers Comanche and to compete with the popular Cessna 172.

Piper introduced the original Cherokee Arrow in 1967 and it was the first of the Cherokee family to feature retractable landing gear.

The Arrow II followed in 1972 with a stretched fuselage to provide increased leg room for the rear passengers, and the Arrow III arrived in 1977 with larger fuel tanks for improved range and a semi tapered wing and longer stabilator for improved low-speed handling.

It is normally priced at 27.99, or the equivalent on currency cross rates.

The download file size is 798MB and it requires 2GB of HDD space for installation.

A stand out feature is the detail in the aircraft systems and this will provide a little more attention for the general aviation flyer who is looking for something more than just an aircraft to jump into and fly.

The aircraft has all the usual features expected of add-ons today, and a full list of these features are available on the Just Flight product page linked below.

Its chunky fuselage, large stabilator and wide but tapered wings, gives the impression that the PA-28R Arrow III is a solid and dependible aircraft, and ideal for pilots transitioning more complex aircraft.

It is longer than its predecessors and has a third window along the side over the luggage compartment.

There is a front door on the right side and a cargo door is installed aft of the rear seat.

The low wing is of conventional semi-tapered design and has a 7 dihedral to give extra stability and ground clearance.

Textured seating, carpet, and padded side panels are typical of the 70s era.

The cabin is modestly appointed, and is presented with a degree of wear and tear, particularly in the cockpit and the carpets, giving the true appearance, and feel of an aircraft which has seen a fair few service hours in its life.

This less than pristine appearance adds a nice character to the environment.

Again, the quality of the cockpit textures are superb and affirm the quality of this product.

The yokes can be individually hidden to gain easier access to the gauges and switches behind them.

In typical Piper style, the manifold pressure - fuel flow fuel pressure gauge and the tachometer RPM gauge are tucked down next to the engine and prop controls so being able to hide the yokes is a definite bonus.

The standard analogue flight instruments are typical of the model range and consistent with an aircraft of this category and age, and they are supplemented with the Garmin GPS100 GPS unit which with a right click of the mouse can be expanded to its own window for finer detail, you can also left click the gauge to switch the window to display the default Garmin GPS 500 (or both at the same time) Additionally, if you have the Flight1 GTN 650750, it can be integrated using a bespoke Just Flight PA-28R menu off the Add-ons menu.

The PA-28R Arrow III is provided in a single model with eleven individual liveries (a selection only shown below).

The supplied paint schemes are of a retro style, again, consistent with the production era.

The underside has plenty of dirt and oil stains giving a well used and realistic look.

This look shows across the range of liveries and is included in the paint kit layers.
