Andrewsfield's Arrow

[PorkScratching]

Back in 2010 I was checked out on Andrewsfield's PA28R-180 Cherokee Arrow. It's impressively fast compared to the C172 and C152s I usually fly, and correct operation of the throttle, mixture and prop controls adds an additional challenge (not to mention ensuring the gear is down before landing!). Having A-checked the aircraft I had some free time while waiting for the instructor to arrive back from a lesson, so took a few shots on the ground:

My friend Paul was also checked out on the same day, so I sat in the back and took some shots. Firstly some general handling over the Essex countryside, in this instance a turn to the right with 30deg of bank:

And to finish, on short final for 09R at Andrewsfield:
