About the Piper Arrow
The Piper Arrow (PA-28R) is the retractable-gear, 200 hp Cherokee — Piper's classic complex-rating trainer and a faster cross-country single than the fixed-gear Archer. Powered by a 200 hp Lycoming IO-360, it cruises around 137 knots, with the Turbo Arrow III/IV adding turbocharging and higher-altitude performance. The Arrow IV introduced the T-tail. With thousands in flight schools for complex/high-performance endorsements, the Arrow has a deep used market.

Buying a Used Piper Arrow
Every Piper Arrow faces a mandatory 2,000-hour overhaul, so the single biggest factor in used price is how much time remains before that overhaul is due — a fresh-overhaul airframe can be worth a large share of the $30,000 overhaul cost more than one approaching its limit.
What to check before buying
- Time to overhaul — hours and years remaining to the 2,000-hour limit; this dominates resale value more than total time.
- Logbook completeness — continuous, gap-free maintenance records; missing logs cut value and complicate financing.
- Damage history — any prior accident, hard landing or blade strike; cross-check the registration against accident databases.
- Avionics — a glass panel vs steam gauges materially changes price.
- Pre-buy inspection — always commission an independent inspection by a type-experienced mechanic before money changes hands.
