I used to own and fly an Arrow with the high tee tail. Loved it. Eventually sold for my purchase cost. One time couldn't get three greens for landing gear... ultimately it was my sunglasses.

My first wife was a MEII. Competent and a good instructor but had little or no feel for the airplane. She did say once that, "If you lower the gear to land, sooner or later you'll forget. If you lower the gear to slow down, you'll never forget." I don't know that that's technically true but it makes a lot of sense and has been an axiom for every pilot I know.

One of my favorites all times airplanes ✈️, Piper Arrow , slick design, it will never get old , just like the Porsche 911.

I had to stop and rewind a little bit when i herd some radio traffic from my airport X04 Apopka on the take off. Just started my PPL and your videos have been great funny while being informational. See you in the air!

I flew the non turbo version and the instructor I had pulled the same trick with dimming the lights on me, so I know what you were looking at. Great videos Jimmy 🙂

I did a big chunk of my training in an Arrow. Love it.

A good practice when lowering the gear is to keep your hand on the gear switch until you verify down and locked. Prevents forgetting to verify.

I love sneaky CFI’s. Good job.

here in Christchurch New Zealand we have possibly the oldest Pa28R-200 Arrow still flying. Still earning a living with the Canterbury Aero Club. :-)

The few airplanes that I know of that has speed and six passengers are a PA-46 and a Silver Eagle. I don't know of any that might need your tender loving care. Good luck in finding one.

Good stuff. Nice going. Hopefully you can find the Cirrus. Saludos !!!

A Super Viking would be a good choices only 4 seats but fast and fun to fly

If your instructor had NOT thrown you a curve, he would not have been doing the job for you. But he did👍! BTW, the Piper Turbo Arrow was the same aircraft in which I completed my complex endorsement. Love the plane!

Jimmy is a open mouth breather.

Same thing on my Baron, if you have the nav lights on you can't see the green lights.

Good luck 👍

Beechcraft Baron B55 or T-42a cochise is on my list. It is almost twice as fast as my 110 knot single engine airplane yet burns less than twice as much fuel, getting you there twice as fast at just under the same amount of fuel. fuel injected io-470L engines help with the fuel economy. You can opt for upgrading the engines to 300hp to go really fast and spend more money. If you choos a T-42a, you can get a cool military paint job

Check out the new Synergy DBT airplane - 300 kts cruise! the ultimate in ultra low drag flying

You can look into the, Saratoga, Seneca, or the piper Chyanne LS 400

Cessna 210 or early Piper Malibu should do it for you as far as 6 place go. The Malibu is pressurized and in the flight levels should reach close to 200 knots.

Avião lindo aqui no Brasil um parecido com este é o EMB Sertanejo

Buy a Piper Aerostar. Badass ramp appeal. You could make a ton of videos as you fix it up. Good times.

Hey, Jimmy, have you thought about assembling a kit, like a RV10? Would probably fit your criteria, and be well below your 200k budget limit.

Great CFI

Look down the road. Velocity XL with dash-5 option gets you 200+ & 5 seats for less than $200K.

nice one

The Seneca has twin engine IO-360 which the fuel burn is comparable to that of IO-540

Bombardier Learjet 24D for 150K, very nice!!

You will have to strap them on the wings but my dream hot rod with low fuel burn like 10 gals a hr would a Glassair ||| and that baby flies at 290 knots and that hauling ass and then some. I been trying to find one just a ride, oh my god that would be so good. The plane you need is the kit plan that they change out to a turbo prop it’s called a Legend then but for got the name as a kit plane they bad boys either way and have the seats for all !

Word of advice Jimmy...speed kills...be safe...

Seems like the Cessna 300 series or 400 series is a great deal for your mission.

Oh it’s a Lance air old timers kicking in !

I live in Lakeland, FL and wanting to get my PPL. Who would you recommend me using?

DC-3 in Rockford Il.

Hey Jimmy why not a 68 thru 73 Baron. It would handle all your family plus baggage and smooth flying. It's a thought

Yeah, T-Tails were a thing for a while.

Shrike Commander 500 good plane easy maintenanance . seats 6 comfortably

G, day Jimmy's World channel from Sydney, Australia. * there seems to be a benefit in a 200hp engine in the FAR/AIM. * can your CFI approve a complicated aircraft endorsement (rating)? (Retractable gear, flaps and variable pitch prop)? 🌏🇭🇲

Beachcraft Baron. The A36 and F33 are close.

Please paint some trim on that beauty!

You're next project should be an F86 or MIG 15

there's a good F86 for sale somewhere

How about a Duke? Although it is a twin.

Cessna 310 or even better a 340? I'm not sure you'll get there with a 200k budget.

Mooney bravo will do 195 knots and is easily found for under 200k

Think about a Piper Seminole

Random question... Jimmy, do you deal with a little bit of Tourrette's? Just curious

Are you talking single or twin engine

Jimmy, a great project would be a Beechcraft Starship. Cruise @ 307 kts and on the top at FL410 not to mention 2,400 BTUs. With the cookie duster you would be STYLING.

Cessna 210T Centurion Fast, reliable, 6 place, retract gear...They're out there

Three in the green so the people in the back row can hear it. Centurion will get in that 200 knot area.

Great video! Call me crazy but I'm trying to find a true 4 seater under $100k. Something that does 1k pounds of people plus some baggage and gas for legal 400 nm that doesn't have the back seat passengers all pretzeled up.

Why not put a turbo or a blower on the plane you have? Better yet why not a small block Chevy LS? I have a friend that built a airboat it did not have enough power so he put another airplane motor On top of the other one he was running two motors and one prop. LOL that’s true wish I could send you pictures. Enjoy your channel

Careful Jimmy, you’re hittin’ too close to home about what I remember what’s NOT written in the POH!

where do you find plastics

TBM 850 fast 6 seater

I just don't like T-Tail plains because of the handling and s potential stress on the tail.

Bellanca Viking 300

200mpg airplane 200mpg plus is a piper comanche 250 non turbo

Cessna 340, 414.

Meyer's 200D!!

D18S!

I never liked the t tail. I wanna feel the stab come alive when power is applied.

Cessna 340

So I guess an Ercoupe is out of the guestion?

Lancair Legacy

Cessna P337

Aerostar 600

Lancair IVP.....

Dude if only small things left on her .. I really hope some cheap vinal sticker the all white needs to go

Flying prison blues!

Malibu, but I don't think you are going to find one for less than 200k.

Malibu

You want them to screw with you a bit. That is how you learn.

Twin Comanche

White Lightening, Oh man, if you can find one, you'll be leaving every body in your turbulence! White Lightening, talk it up to make it happen! Jimmy's World! ☜ (↼_↼)

That 200 hp Arrow TB is under powered. It should be at least 300 hp.

Malibu...

Concorde? Would that work? 😂

How come leaving the wife at home for a fast 4-seater is not an option ??? I often find wives to be more annoying than kids.

Glassair

get a canberra bomber $4000 ex raf

Your leaving a lot out of the equation for whats needed? You want to go fast but the airplanes that do, cant land at any of those cute little airports that are so fun to get into. Mooney's, Lancair's, Aerostars cant do it, their worthless for slow approach speeds and small runways carrying any kind of weight, airplanes I see recommended like super Bellanca's aren't 200kts planes. If you want to go fast "and get into all the uncontrolled" fields and not worry about stalling turning base to final, ""fully loaded"", Cessna 210 Turbo with a runout engine. If want to spend a little more without hassles and have a fixed gear plane thats actually better than Cirrus and cruises at a Real 200kts, get a Cessna TTx, Columbia 400. There is a "Lancair conversion" that is the "best General aviation airplane in the world" that can do it all but its twice what you want to pay. The LX7 from RDD enterprises can do it all, fly's as fast as a jet, has slotted flower flaps to get you into all the small short runways. My guess is you want to pack it full of stuff though, The Turbo 210 with a Robertson Stol kit cant be beat, true 200 kts airplane, not 180 or 190 stupid nonsense like these other recommendations. You just have to be very careful of the carry through spar on 210, you don't want one with any history of moisture above the headliner and have been inspected the right way.

Why can’t you remember the co-pilots name is Cleave! You keep calling him Rodger!

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

what's with the mouth thing? popping your ears?

are you yawning to pop your ears or is that just a flying tick you have

Leave the wife home

Come on Jimmy this is pretty much boring just to look at you two in that airplane
