Cherokee Six short landing in Moosonee. - Oct 05/07

Me landing Piper Cherokee Six on 06 at Moosonee. Trying to make it smooth and short. My shortest landing was being stopped at the yellow hold short line 200ft from runway 32. (Landing on 06) But that was with a 15 knot headwind.

Very nice landing, I'm flying a Pa32-260 in France and love that plane!

@flightfred It's great plane and can carry a hell of a load for it's size. The early model 260's anyway.

Thanks for the great videos John..question for you...is your cherokee a 2 or 3 blade and which would you prefer or do you notice a diff..I am planning to buy a six or saratoga and would appreciate your experienced opinion...

[jmr604]

It's a 2 blade.. I've been told the 2 blade and 3 blade have the same performance but I never used a 3 blade.. only on the 206.. they say its quieter.. if I had a choice I'd get a 3 blade for atleast a better look and noise levels...perhaps vibration too... I hope the next prop we get is 3 blade so I know.

Realistically how much shorter can a C-206 land in comparison to the Cherokee 6? I have always read the Cessna is the better short field plane.

[jmr604]

I think if I really tried I could probably stop the C206 in 400ft and the Cheorkee in 500ft. They are a close match on pavement.. but I often take the C206 into places I would never take a cherokee.. like soft/short fields with obstacles. If your planning on doing any bush flying.. I would prefer the C206.. but if I was only going into nicer places.. like paved runways or well maintained soft ones.. I'd choose the cherokee.

@jmr604 I m doing sightseeing flights in the south of France with it, amazing how 260hp is enough for 7 seats! Happy landings JMR
