77.9k Cedy117  8.5 years ago

PA-22 Tri-Pacer are a family of four-place, strut braced, high-wing light aircraft that were built by Piper Aircraft in the post-World War II period.The Pacer was essentially a four-place version of the two-place PA-17 Vagabond light aircraft. It features a steel tube fuselage and an aluminum frame wing, covered with fabric, much like Piper's most famous aircraft, the Cub and Super Cub. An aircraft prized for its ruggedness, spacious cabin, and, for its time, impressive speed, many Pacers continue to fly today.Factory installed 125 hp (93 kW), 135 hp (100 kW) and 150 hp (112 kW) engine options were available and 160 hp (120 kW) as well as 180 hp (135 kW) engine after-market conversions are an option.

    Oh so you don't have any bridge or whatever thing? Cause I think that when there is a ferry it does only a couple of rides per day (2-3 I think) and then you're stucked there :p So with this you must know little planes like this one since you're on an isoled island... Isn't Alert Bay like near Alaska or something? I heard it was reaaally into the North

    Would be fun to have other planes like this one (good-old Piper Cub/Super Cub for example)

    Well, this is pretty great and pretty realistic (we need more planes like this), but it's a bit underpowered. Anyway, still really great from a B.C guy (I'm from Quebec) :p Are you living in Vancouver/Prince George or near a place like this or somewhere else?
