um, Dakota is specific. It's the 235HP variant of the Warrior. Performance similar to a 182.
Back to the topic at hand, I fly a PA46 occasionally. I call up as a Mirage, one of the other guys calls it a Malibu. Both are correct. But ATC often tries to call us a Meridian. We don't have a turboprop.
Ah my mistake. I kept working one and having never heard of it before I googled it (since I assumed it was a C-47 until the pilot called himself a Piper). The wikipedia link made it appear it was a broad classification of single engine Pipers rather than a specific variant.
