VQ Model Pa-38 Tomahawk 60 Size 1.86M Us Version VQA163US

The Tomahawk is a single-engined low-wing cantilever monoplane with a T-tail and an enclosed cabin for two. It has a fixed tricycle landing gear and is powered by a Lycoming O-235 four-cylinder piston engine with a twin-bladed tractor propeller. The Tomahawk has two front-hinged doors for access to the cabin.

The Tomahawk was Piper’s attempt at creating an affordable two-place trainer. Before designing the aircraft, Piper widely surveyed flight instructors for their input into the design. Instructors requested a more spinnable aircraft for training purposes, since other two-place trainers such as the Cessna 150 and 152 were designed to spontaneously fly out of a spin. The Tomahawk’s NASA GA(W)-1 Whitcomb airfoil addresses this requirement by making specific pilot input necessary in recovering from spins, thus allowing pilots to develop proficiency in dealing with spin recovery.

The Tomahawk was introduced in 1977 as a 1978 model. The aircraft was in continuous production until 1982 when production was completed, with 2,484 aircraft built.

VQ Models introduced the PA-38 Tomhawk in size 60 , this is a popular size when you have a lot to choose from , you can go for a Nitro engine 60-2 stroke , an 82 – 4 stroke nitro engine or a 10cc gasoline engine . You can also use an electric motor (like the Boost 60) and easily install a 5S – 5000 AmH battery. And no matter what you attach, this PA-38 still flies like a lowing trainer.
