<Piper PA-32 Cherokee Six ZS-EXY> looks really heavily-laden to my eyes, Bruce. I know it wears wheel fairings; but you ought to be able to see <something> of the oleos...? I flew heavy loads in its cousin (-EXG) for over a year and never saw the aircraft <that> low to the ground! :o

Sometimes a pic does not tell the whole story.
Firstly it was parked on a slope which exacerbates the nose high nose attitude.
Secondly, it was only running so that it could taxi the 50m odd to the AMO to get the gear sorted :)
