Poobs,
Did you ever fly the predecessor to the Pacer, the Clipper? I only did so one time, with two people, nothing in back. I liked that it had sticks rather than wheels and was suitably impressed with the way it handled. Modest performance, but that was the idea at the time, keep it as cheap as possible. From what I could tell it was Piper's foray into the market for the couples who had bought its two-place airplanes and now had a little kid or two and needed more space on a budget.
Wonder if anyone here has memories of going over the river and over the woods to Grandma's house in a Clipper or Pacer in the '50s.
Best regards,
Rick
