Spring 1964, Corpus Christi, Texas, my first student flight was in a Piper Tri-Pacer.... LOVED IT! NOISY and landed like a brick (limited wing span), but I LOVED IT!

The father of a high school friend of mine was a pilot for Piedmont Airlines and he owned a Tri-pacer. I got to fly in it once and I have always thought they were beautiful little airplanes.

My first plane I bought in 1975 was a Piper Tri Pacer PA 22 150, KUG, paid $6,500. I had 14 hrs flying time when I bought it. I had 60 hrs flying before I took my test. A great little plane to fly should never have sold it.

@@mtrunk8570It was nice to see my old plane again. I bought a 56 tripacer in 1974 and got my commercial with it. Flew it 350 hours so got to know it well. Sold it for what I paied for it- $ 5200. Did you know it was called the flying milk stool ? It went up like an elevator in winter here in Canada. Great 4 seater 110 MPH plane. Thanks again !
