Piper PA-32 Cherokee Six
The Piper PA-32 Cherokee Six is a series of six or seven seat, high-performance aircraft, manufactured in the United States.
The PA-32 series began life as the Cherokee Six, a significantly modified six (or seven) seat development of the PA-28 Cherokee series.
While the Saratoga has a good safety record, it gained a certain amount of infamy when John F. Kennedy Jr. and two passengers were fatally injured in one on July 16 1999.
The turbocharged Saratoga II TC was introduced in 1997. 1999 models introduce new Garmin and S-TEC avionics. A five seat interior with a entertainment/workstation console (similar to that in the Seneca V) is optional.
The PA-32 was also built under licence in Brazil as the Embraer EMB-720 Minuano, and the PA-32R as the EMB-721 Sertanejo, while Chincul in Argentina built the PA-32 as PA-A-32, the PA-32R as PA-A-32R, and the PA-32RT as the PA-A-32RT.
