Piper Aircraft has a foundational history in general aviation, tracing its roots back to 1927 in Rochester, New York. After an initial period under different names, William T. Piper established the Piper Aircraft Corporation in 1937, leading to the creation of iconic aircraft like the Piper Cub. The company relocated to Lock Haven, Pennsylvania, and continued to produce a variety of popular models, later opening a manufacturing division in Lakeland, Florida.
