Interior Notes: Clean, comfortable and functional Cherokee cabin that reflects an aircraft that has been regularly flown and cared for. The four-place PA-28 cabin provides the classic Cherokee combination of good visibility, straightforward controls and practical cross-country comfort. Shoulder harnesses and newer seat belts have been installed, providing a worthwhile safety upgrade over the original equipment. The interior presents as a practical, well-kept traveling airplane rather than a seldom-used showpiece.
