FSX Steam Edition: Piper PA-28R Turbo Arrow III/IV Add-On

First available in 1977, the Turbo Arrow III was the first turbocharged variant of the PA-28R Arrow, retaining the conventional tail of the Arrow III and a new cowling which housed the six-cylinder turbocharged engine. The Turbo Arrow IV followed in 1979 and featured the distinctive T-tail which was common amongst other Piper aircraft.

The PA-28R Turbo Arrow III and Arrow IV are four seater, turbocharged piston-engine aircraft equipped with a retractable tricycle landing gear and constant-speed propeller – ideal for touring and instrument training. Just Flight's rendition of the Piper PA-28R Arrow III is an accurate and highly detailed model and it provides a faithful representation of the real world aircraft.
