No luck in a search of the Cherokee forum here or in POS so does anyone have a copy of the official Piper AFM for a 1969 PA-32-300? The report is VB-158 and I have it as of Rev. 1 but not to its "most current" Rev which is II from Oct 4, 1970 per Piper Tech Pubs. I'm sure its only a couple of pages but I cannot find it on-line and Piper wants $150 for it. NB - I'm not talking about the Pilot Info Manual.
During my pre-buy the very experienced IA told me he is routinely retained by insurance companies after an incident/crash and one of the first things he checks for in the airplane is current copies of all required manuals per the TCDS. If some are missing/incomplete, it helps the insurance company build a case as to why they aren't going to cover the loss.
