I looked at putting A/C on my RV but I just could not come up with a way to justify the weight. That would be even harder to deal with on a 601. You know Piper had some air conditioned Cherokees around 1970. They had aluminum York compressors driven by the alternator belt and a condenser in the bottom of the fuselage behind the wing. The condenser was extended into the slipstream by and electric motor when the A/C was turned on. A switch on the throttle turned off the compressor and retracted the condenser when pushed to maximum power.

And between 1978 and 1997 I flew in about 5 or 6 of those '70s vintage, air conditioned Pipers and in not a single one of them the A/C worked.

The only one I ever saw work was brand new. Did you ever see one of the add on units that used nitrogen from a storage tank, passed it through an expansion valve and an evaporator and then vented it overboard?
