Pipers in Hungary

    Piper's were rarely seen in my childhood: almost all aircraft in Hungary were manufactured by the COMECON countries (mostly by Czechoslovakia, Poland and the Sovietunion) back then. Only a few Piper and one Cessna "Skymaster" were used in general aviation. This has changed after the political turn: hundreds of used "western" aircrafts were brought into the country after 1990.

    Piper PA-23 "Aztec"

    I like this plane very much, it's so elegant! Unfortunately I forgot to write down its registration marks...

    Piper PA-28 "Cherokee Warrior"

    Piper PA-28-xxx a.k.a. "Cherokee Warrior II" at Farkashegy (LHFH). This plane is like a family limousine: contrary to the Cessna-172, it has enough room for my feet :-)

    The same plane from a different angle.
