Piper PA 48
A discussion at the other place got me looking up the types I have flown. It looks like I have most of the Piper Single Engine types in my logbook but I am definitely missing the PA 48........

I'm hoping for the day I can log some hours in an XB-70.

Added the PA-11 Legend Cub last week to my logbook(might not count as a true Piper). PA-24, Pa-28(Cherokee 140, Archer, Arrow), PA-32(Cherokee Six, Turbo Lance).

I'm still relatively new at flying and managed to collect P28, P28R, J3 & PA24!

The only Pipers in my log are PA28 (-140 and R-200) and PA-34...

Re: Piper PA 48
my previous post was submitted before I had my coffee. Petty hard to sell an Enforcer to a flying farmer just to hunt goffers

Since you're too much of a butt-munch to post a picture when you make reference to a very arcane aircraft, here's a picture of my last flight -Big Pistons Forever wrote: ↑Fri Jun 15, 2018 12:32 pm ...but I am definitely missing the PA 48........

Hey, I put two "funny face" emojis at the bottom. Is that the keyboard action of a grumpy person?
When I was typing it and my computer screen didn't laugh I thought it was just him. Funniness and internetedness don't always synch.
Maybe I should have just used this -

Re: Piper PA 48
Have you ever seen a T-33? It still looks like a Mustang, minus the bulky Merlin engine with the cooling system.

Re: Piper PA 48
The tail is way more Mustang looking. Those tip tanks and the nose.. I'm really not defending my position very well. It's been a while but I have seen a few T-33s.
Did you sell your plane? Seemed like a nice one.
