About the Piper Cheyenne

The Piper Cheyenne (PA-31T) is the turboprop Navajo — a pressurised, twin-PT6A-powered business aircraft derived from the Navajo airframe. The line spans the original Cheyenne (PT6A-11), the more powerful Cheyenne II (PT6A-28), the stretched Cheyenne IIIA, and the high-altitude Cheyenne 400LS. Cruise speeds range from ~280 to ~340 knots depending on variant. As a turboprop Navajo, the Cheyenne offers turbine simplicity and pressurised cabin comfort at piston-twin used prices.

Buying a Used Piper Cheyenne

Buying a Piper Cheyenne centres on its turbine engine(s) — time to overhaul, hot-section history and any engine maintenance program — alongside airframe hours and cycles.

What to check before buying

  • Turbine engine status — hot-section and overhaul time, trend monitoring and whether the engine is on a maintenance program.
  • Airframe hours & cycles — high-utilisation turboprops accumulate cycles quickly; cycles can matter more than hours.
  • Equipment — cargo pod, floats/amphibian gear, de-ice and avionics all affect value.
  • Corrosion & logbooks — continuous records and a corrosion inspection, especially on float or marine-operated aircraft.
  • Pre-buy inspection — commission an independent pre-buy by a type-experienced shop.

Frequently Asked Questions — Piper Cheyenne

How much does a used Piper Cheyenne cost?
Turboprops are priced heavily on engine status, so PT6A time and overhaul history matter as much as the airframe. See the live price range and median above for current Cheyenne listings.
What engines does the Cheyenne use?
Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A turboprops. On a turboprop, hours since overhaul, any engine program enrollment, and hot-section status are key to both safety and resale value.
What are the Cheyenne variants?
The Cheyenne I and II are the lighter models, the IIIA is stretched with more power, and the Cheyenne 400 is the fastest version, cruising up to around 350 kt.
How is the Cheyenne related to the Navajo?
The Cheyenne is the turboprop development of the PA-31 Navajo cabin twin, swapping piston engines for PT6A turbines for more speed, altitude and reliability.
