Why consider this model?
How much space?
People and cabin dimensions share one scale. The cabin outline is illustrative. The layout is an example, not the seat map of the aircraft in your quote.
Room for your luggage
0.69 m³ of baggage space.
* Indicative estimate based on published baggage volume, for medium suitcases around 65 × 45 × 25 cm. Compartment shape, door openings, baggage weight and flight load can reduce the number. We confirm your luggage for the aircraft offered.
Skis, golf bags or extra luggage?
Include the number and dimensions of bulky items in your request. Long items need a separate check.
Aircraft specifications
Seats include only passengers here. Crew, baggage and fuel must fit within the aircraft weight limits; cabin dimensions may include the cockpit.
The model and its relatives
PA-32R
The Lance introduced retractable landing gear to the PA-32 family in 1976. The later Saratoga adopted a tapered wing, followed by updated interiors and equipment.
Model historyWhere it began and how it evolved
Piper’s PA-32 family provided a roomy single-engine piston aircraft, first associated with the Cherokee Six. Retractable landing gear created the PA-32R branch. The later Saratoga brought a different wing, so the family evolved through distinct versions while retaining a useful passenger cabin and rear access door.

PA-32R covers several versions, including turbocharged models. These figures use the normally aspirated Saratoga II HP as a reference. The cabin is unpressurised and its six seats include the pilot.
Before you choose
Can I stand upright in the cabin?
The cabin is lower than 180 cm, so a person of that height cannot stand fully upright. The scaled illustration shows the difference. Maximum cabin height: 1.07 m.
Will my aircraft have this exact interior?
Not necessarily. These photographs and the layout illustrate the model. We check the actual interior, seats and equipment when preparing your proposal.
