I'm looking for what I think is a pretty rare airplane for a photo shoot. Anyone have or know of a T-Tail Turbo Arrow PA-28RT-201T? I'm hoping to find something within a couple of hour flight from Austin in the 170 or someone who is willing to fly out this way.

This is for a magazine shoot/cover.
 
I don't want to buy one, just take photos of one! I need to find someone who is interested in getting their plane on a magazine cover and I would prefer it to be in Texas so I can get the shots very soon.

I appreciate it. Looks like most of those are pretty far away. I think I may have found one in Lubbock.

More than I would have guessed! I don't think I even knew such a plane existed before now. Oddly enough, the one I'm trying to get in touch now just happens to be the first one on this list.

I'm not, but I will need to join. I'll need lots of Piper photos going forward. Thanks for the tip.
 
why a turbo? Is it specific to the customer? I'd figure a NA IV would work just as well, alas the cowling is different so an informed eye could tell.

Not sure, I just pull the trigger. The magazine tells me exactly what type of plane they want and I go try to get the shots. I think the story will be about that specific type of plane, so they would hate for that guy with the informed eye to call them on it!
 
I sold mine. Not turbo. Lovely plane.

Did you find one? I have a friend here in Tyler with a straight tail turbo arrow. It is a show piece!

No, I missed out on this one. It was a long shot. It had to be a T-tail for the story. I did get another POA member on the cover of November’s Cessna Owner magazine though! More to come on that soon.
