Key Features of the REP for Piper PA28R Arrow III
1. Fully-Featured Lycoming IO-360 Engine Model
The heart of the Piper Arrow III, the Lycoming IO-360 engine, has been meticulously modeled to deliver accurate performance and behavior. This includes realistic engine temperatures, pressures, and even subtle nuances like the effects of oil type and fuel mixture settings on engine health.
2. Detailed Walkaround Pre-Flight Inspection
Before you even start the engine, take advantage of the walkaround feature to perform a thorough pre-flight inspection. You’ll be able to check the control surfaces, tires, fuel quality, oil level, and more, just as you would in real life. This feature adds an extra layer of immersion, ensuring you’re fully prepared for your flight.
3. Integrated Kneeboard
The built-in kneeboard is your in-flight assistant, offering quick access to essential information such as checklists, performance data, and even weather reports. This tool is designed to keep everything you need at your fingertips, making your flight smoother and more organized.

Every system in the Arrow III has been recreated with high fidelity, from the electrical system to the autopilot. You’ll experience failures, wear and tear, and system interactions that mirror the real-world aircraft, providing an authentic and challenging flying experience.
5. Persistent Aircraft Status
One of the standout features of this REP is the persistent aircraft status. The condition of your aircraft is saved between flight sessions, meaning any wear, damage, or system issues will carry over. This forces you to maintain your aircraft just like a real pilot, adding another level of realism and responsibility.
6. Advanced Flight Dynamics
The flight model has been fine-tuned to offer a realistic experience in all phases of flight. Whether you’re climbing out, cruising, or landing, the Arrow III’s behavior is accurate and true to the real aircraft, providing a satisfying and authentic flying experience.
