Piper PA-31T Cheyenne II / T-1020 / T-1040

A significant advance in the Navajo family came on 22 October 1973 when Piper flew the first production example of the PA-31T Cheyenne, which combined an airframe generally similar to that of the Pressurized Navajo with two 620hp Pratt & Whitney Aircraft of Canada PT6A-28 turboprop engines.
