Piper Aircraft is considered to be one of the “Big Three” in general aviation, along with Cessna and Beechcraft. The company was founded in 1927 as Taylor Brothers Aircraft Manufacturing Company by two brothers, Gordon and Clarence Taylor. However, shortly after the company was founded, William Piper, a wealthy oil baron, convinced Clarence to move the company to Pennsylvania in the late 1920s.
