I stand corrected. It either used to be based there or there was another one in that area. Sexy looking ship though :drool:

That Piper is no slouch.
It cruises at 320 kts, top end is 350kts.
Wonder what they cost?

Mmm lots of Price: Inquire which means better than $2m
I must also confess to be utterly confused by the tags Piper put on their aircraft.
You can have a Cheyenne that is an absolute dog, but you can also have a Cheyenne that looks like the baby above.

Yeah, Piper are great at revamping their aircraft so that they look totally different to the model before but look remarkably similar to another type of aircraft.
