My Cherokee 		My plane and I

Ready to go... I bought my airplane in 1997. It is a very well cared for 1967 Piper Cherokee. Being a 1967 it has a few differences from newer Pipers. For instance, the trim handle is an overhead crank on the roof between the front seats. Pre-1968 Cherokees also had push-pull type throttles, instead of the stereo-typically Piper throttle quadrant.

My plane is IFR equipped, although my trusty Fly Buddy loran is nearing the end of its useful life and will probably be swapped out for a GPS as soon as I save up the $$$. My Panel
