Following on from their award-winning PA-28R Arrow III, Hawk T1/AAdvanced Trainer and C152, this highly detailed simulation of thePA-28-181 Archer III has been developed by Just Flight's in-house teamfollowing comprehensive, hands-on research with a real-life ArcherIII, G-CIFY, based at Turweston Airfield. The PA-28-181 Archer III is a four-seater, piston-engine aircraftequipped with a fixed tricycle landing gear, 180 hp four-cylinderengine and fixed-pitch propeller. Certified in the mid-1990s, theArcher III is one of the most recent PA28 variants to be built,reflected in its streamlined cowling and cockpit overhead panelcontrols. Capable of cruising at 118 knots and with a range of nearly500 miles, it is an ideal aircraft for touring and flighttraining. /images/notams/notams19/just0211/archer-1.jpgThe cockpit features an impressive suite of avionics for instrumenttraining and IFR flights, with a GNS 530 GPS, GNC 255 radio, S-TECautopilot, HSI and ADF instruments. The Archer III is flown all around the world and in addition to ourUK research aircraft, G- CIFY, the product features liveries from theUSA, Canada, France, Australia and Germany.
