I own a pa28-181 .. 76 Archer ii.

just into my 2nd year of ownership, low time pilot (350 hrs). and i hope this summer to take longer trips from home base in the PNW.

Curious how far other cherokee owners take their planes as far as trips. -- i know that with 2 piolots and lots of time, you can go cross country (flew this bird home from NC to WA with my instructor, in 3 days) .. but i'm more curious how far you like to go when its just you.

furthest i've gone by myelf is a 3 hr flight from the seattle area to southern oregon (medford area). -- i think twice that distance would be fine for me -- and perhaps i can work stamina up to 3 times over-time. (like SEA to Las vegas) but that feels like a very long day..
