So fixed gear PA-28s became P28A (i.e. slower
Cherokees 140-181) and P28B for the faster fixed gear Cherokees (235,

Well...I guess I've filed as PA28 (archer II) a half dozen times and
havent been yelled at for it yet. I shall get it right next time.
maybe they were input as P28A

Just like at the flight school where we were filing C172 for the
cutlass RG, which should really C72R

methinks a difference of 10-20 knots doesnt make much diff to ATC,
tho. Now the diff between a PA28-140 and a Turbo arrow...that they
might want to know...
