Western Air Flight Academy - KBJC
The PA-28 is a low-cost airplane offering safe flight characteristics and good performance at a great price. This aircraft is equipped with a 180HP engine upgrade, Garmin 430, Garmin SL30 Nav/Com, dual Garmin G5’s, Lynx ADS-B Transponder, and a brand new interior making for a great environment for all levels of flight training.
Warriors are primarily distinguished from their Cherokee predecessors by their double-tapered wing planform and two-foot-wider wingspans. The stabilator, sometimes described as a flying tail, is one of the Warrior’s distinguishing features. The entire horizontal tail pivots as one to act as the elevator. While it gives pilots a lot of pitch control, the stabilator is primarily used because it is considered more economical to build than a conventional stabilizer/elevator.
