350 has been known as an a$$clown for quite some time. When it turned out that English was talking about him, my first reaction was, "That's it? Of course he's a fake!"
And now Chprplt was banned for saying it? Sheesh.
I think the crux here is that 800TT and 800 "additional time" isn't going to help you in the eyes of the insurance companies. If you're not insurable, then anything else is a moot point.
Sounds to me like you're not considering the regionals. If that's true, then you need to keep working on...
Honestly, I think a jet, even a 550, is a little more than we're going to be willing to chew. We do operate a Citation out of the city where we're headquartered, but the guys here really love the cavernous 200 cabin, and with our legs being as short as they are, I tend to think a King Air is a...
Contract Baron pilots around here are making $250-300/day plus expenses.
Even if you were qualified to fly a Baron (which you're not), think about all the friends you'd make around here by offering to fly one for free!
Although with your time, you might be able to find a good gig washing a...
I've given some thought to a 550, however I was concerned about the higher operating costs. How much more do you figure it'd cost to operate than say, a 200? Obviously it'll burn quite a bit more fuel, but what about MX, Phase I-IV inspections, etc...are we looking at just an incremental cost...
Thanks all for the suggestions! There's a lot there that I didn't think of. And to be clear, when I said 8 seats, I meant 6 in the back and 2 up front. Of course, *more* seats shouldn't be a problem either. :)
...be a choice. Maybe a B100? Or a Cheyenne IIIA? Of course we don't have to spend the entire 1.3M - for example I think it'd be preferred to get a *solid* B100 or Cheyenne III for 1.2M than a marginal straight 200 for 1.3M.
Anyway, that's my situation, and I'd appreciate any thoughts or...
I decided to give them a try a few months back, and they did a great job of taking care of my passengers. Rental car was pulled up to the plane, and everyone was friendly. Unfortunately the pilot areas aren't quite as nice, and there's no crew car (although they will drive you somewhere if you'd...
Yes - it is bonded, and the airframe is smooth. I think this is how Grumman managed to get Seminole/Duchess like performance on less horsepower and a wider airframe. Unfortunately I can't say about an AD on the glue, although I have been told that there are no recurring AD's for the airframe...
