    The Cherokee 235 has always been my favorite GA bird, and I agree, it's criminally underrated. The newer 235s with the constant speed props are great too, but there's something about these original 235's that is so captivating. Would love to be able to own one one day!

    Without being there and knowing for sure, The fuel leak is related to the fuel sump check valve that costs $15 and you need two quick fingers or ideally two people to unscrew and replace but many times if you push it consistently it may release dirt that can cause the leak. We replace one almost yearly on our warrior.

    • @Finder245
      @Finder245 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I was thinking the same, but from my experince with the tapered wing PA28s, the leak is in the wrong spot. It should be leaking on the wheel.

    I owned a 1964 235 and it, overall was best plane I ever flew. Mine carried 84 gallons and I could carry 4 adults and fly 150 mph. I also had the fixed pitch prop and per book, it flew faster than the constant speed variant. In my opinion, the 235 beats the heck out of a 182 Cessna and for way less money. Mine had the motor gas STC that made the 13 gallon per hour burn more manageable. I also had a nice set of radios. Initially, it took a lot of cranking to start until I read the published start procedure calling for rotating engine with switch off and then I think you switched it to one mag for start and then both when it fired up. Fuel management was more detailed with 4 tanks and on long trips, I ran tips first 15 minutes each side and each one to edge of starvation. You had to watch the fuel pressure gage closely to avoid running out which I occasionally did if I got distracted. I wish I still had mine.

    One very cool thing about the Cherokee 235. is due to the Lycoming O-540's low compression cylinders you can actually safely run ethanol free mogas. Running ethanol free mogas (which in many areas is over $2 cheaper/gal) you can actually get the fuel cost per hour under that of a Cherokee 180. Pretty cool!

  • @billcarrier9622
    @billcarrier9622 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

    I love the Cherokee 235 and there is a STC to convert the fixed pitch model that you have to a constant speed prop in order to get faster cruise speed and better climb performance. The amount of useful load that the Cherokee 235 has is phenomenal. And what other aircraft has 1000lbs of useful load while only burning 12.5 gallons per hour? Well, the answer is no other GA plane does.

    • @JRAviation
      @JRAviation  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      Almost 1000 pound payload on this one! You’re right, not much else competes with it. A constant speed prop would be sweet.

    I purchased a 1965 PA-28-235 with the cosntant speed propr a year ago. Great little plane and especially easy to transition from a Cessna 172.
    I base out of the airport just south of Chino, Corona Muni (KAJO). Chino does have some great planes.
    My aircraft came with fuel leak as well. :) Fortunately mine was the quick drain--a $15 fix!
    Good luck on the 235, it's a great plane. :)

    The 235 is a great airplane. I flew it out of Scottsdale for a long time with the valley flying club that was in the late 90s. That thing is a beast I could take it fully loaded in the summertime to Flagstaff or Sedona and it would just jump off the ground.

    Used to own one in South Africa and you could load it up and if the doors would close it would fly, on the way back from a trip to Namibia we lost the motor and had to land on a farm road, much excitement for the locals and a farmer towed us back to his farm, had to get the engine replaced as the magneto drive shaft sheared and engine was close to time out, they upgraded engine to 250HP and performance was amazing, I sold it and went on to the 300 which was also a great aircraft

  • @beacher425
    @beacher425 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Remember with the 4 tanks…. Fill the tips, drain the mains. When refueling, fill the tips first and when flying, use the mains first. I was told it has to do with the twisting force on the wing spar particularly if flying heavy. But check the manual.

    • @tiaandewitt9559
      @tiaandewitt9559 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      I did my ppl training on a 235 and still own it, my instructor always thought me to fly the tips first because in the event of a spin the centrifugal force can give you a hard time getting out of the spin. But this is just what I was thought;)

    I spent a lot of time in a 1964 235. My dad had one for years when i was a kid. Great airplane. The fuel sumps were always a little tricky. Had more problems with 100LL. Gotta jimmy them a bit sometimes haha. His had an auto gas STC which we preferred. The 100LL liked to foul the plugs every now and then.
    He used to joke and say the only way you could overload it was if you were hauling suitcases full of lead 😂
    Yeah itll haul mad weight but still make sure to always do your weight and balance calcs.
    I think a lot of people steer clear of them because the 12-15 gph fuel burn lol

  • @mustardseedsociety
    @mustardseedsociety 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    I think you made an excellent choice. {I'm assuming you have a Dakota} For one, the Piper Dakota was actually one of the PA28 series that was exempt from the wing spar AD in 2020 because the actual wing spar is thicker than on the lessor powered models of PA28. The only negative, is there is no BRS mod available for the Dakota like there is on a Cessna 182. Any C-182 built after 1964 can have a BRS installed if the owner wants it. On the Dakota or any Piper for that matter, no BRS mod is available.

    Why is it not more popular? Yes it’s faster. Yes it’s got more load capacity. But, yes, it burns more fuel. Yes, it has higher insurance. Not many people need the difference in speed and load that the 235 offers over the 180. There is a very real break point where a plane doesn’t justify the jump in price/insurance/fuel burn. Everything in aviation is a compromise. The jump from the 180 to the 235 is one of those.

Fun fact: Same wings and tail as the Cherokee 6, only the fuselage is different on the 6. That's why the useful load is high.. We just did a new engine. Had 2500 hours on the old engine which was running fine but leaked oil out of every seam...

    Ah, you are in my wheel house now. That fuel leak can be one of four things. A cracked vent hose, a bad fuel quantity sender gasket, a failure in the sealer at a seam or rivets. Either way, if it only leaks when full, you are going to be pulling the tank loose and sliding it forward. The fuel will need to be drained since you need to take the fuel delivery line off to remove the tank. Better hope the mounting screws come loose as they are special structural screws and in two different lengths. So what was the simple fix? 🔨

    Polished aluminum is a lot of work to keep it looking nice, but your plane is lighter, without overall base coat, or a constant speed prop. The fixed pitch model probably has lighter stab/pitch forces, too. Overall a good solid airplane, especially in the summer at higher elevation airports.

    235s are great, but If I recall, the 235 burns about 2 GPH more than a 180. So this is my best guess: The schools want the low power Cherokees because they are more profitable to operate. This means you, as a private buyer, are in direct competition with every Mom 'n Pop flight school and flying club, along with other private buyers. This increases the demand on the low power Cherokee, but not the 235.

    • @JRAviation
      @JRAviation  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    The 235’s do have a complicated fuel system. If you fly it enough, sooner or later, you’ll run out and get an adrenaline hit. I did that once with passengers and got quite a reaction. Did it more than once with just me.

    Owned one the fuel valve can be cleaned easily and stopped the dripping. Should have called a person familiar with the plane. Great plane. 235s.

    Is that a Saab 35 draken in the background?

  • @treyphillippi9486
    @treyphillippi9486 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    235’s are definitely under-appreciated but people avoid them because of the added fuel burn and possible overhaul cost for the limited gain on performance. Payload is the biggest plus, but cabin size is no bigger and more comfortable so its cheaper and easier to go to a 180 horse.
