The Piper PA-28RT-201T is an American fixed-wing civil utility aircraft designed for personal transport, flight training, and air taxi operations. It features a conventional unpressurized all-metal structure with a single-piston engine, low-mounted wings, and a tricycle undercarriage, providing seating for four occupants. The aircraft is well suited for student pilots building hours, cross-country travelers, and flight school operators.
Introduced following type certification, the aircraft family was developed as a more economical alternative to earlier company models, utilizing cheaper manufacturing costs to compete directly in the light aircraft market. Over decades of continuous production, the lineage has incorporated various design upgrades, including modified wing configurations and more powerful engines, becoming a cornerstone of flight training fleets around the world.
