United Flight Services Brings Piper Arrow On-Line.

Monday, June 16, 2003
Watsonville, California



     As part of its continuing program to upgrade its fleet and services, on June 15th United Flight Services brought a Piper Arrow on-line.  The Arrow is a four place, “complex” aircraft ideally suited for training leading to a commercial certificate.  Features of the Arrow include a 200hp engine, retractable landing gear, a constant speed propeller, a single axis autopilot and an electric auxiliary vacuum system. Avionics include KNS-81 RNAV, KY-97A navcom, KX-170B navcom, KN-62 DME, and an ADF. In addition, the Arrow has a newly rebuilt engine, a new propeller, and completely redone interior. In addition to being an excellent commercial trainer, with a cruise speed of approximately 135kts (155mph), the Arrow is also an excellent rental aircraft for advanced pilots. The addition of the Arrow continues the expansion in capacity for advanced training (instrument and commercial) started by the new management of United Flight last year with the acquisition of a Piper Archer II instrument trainer, the renovation of a Cessna 172 trainer, and the acquisition earlier this year of advanced flight simulators.  These efforts are all part of United Flight’s goal of being a premier provider of flight services for the Monterey Bay aviation community.
