Piper 28 Cherokee Warrior

Piper PA-28 Cherokee Warrior airplane model. From its inception, the PA-28 was meant to be an inexpensive airplane that offered benign (safe) flight characteristics and reasonable performance. 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 was primarily used because it was considered more economical to build than a conventional stabilizer/elevator. Mahogany wood. Scale: 1/24. Wingspan 15 inches, Length 12 inches.
