Manufacturer: Piper Aircraft

The Piper PA‑32R, originally called the Cherokee Lance and later the Saratoga, is a six‑seat (or seven‑seat) high‑performance single‑engine, all‑metal, fixed‑wing aircraft produced by Piper Aircraft of Vero Beach, Florida. It evolved from the Cherokee Six by adding retractable landing gear and a tapered wing, giving it a higher cruise speed and better climb performance.
