I'm interested in purchasing a Piper Twin Comanche in the next 3-4 months.
I'd like to contact any owners or anyone with any information or advice. I have never owned an airplane before nor have I been involved in purchasing a plane for someone else.
I'm interested to know things like how much an overhaul on each engine costs, how long that takes, what about the props?
Is it possible to buy the plane and then get multi instruction in it and take the checkride in it or will insurance companies not allow that?
I'm interested in flying with a friend. How do non-owners of multi aircraft get insured?
I'd like to spend no more than $125k buying the plane, doing a pre-buy insepction on it, an annual and just getting it in decent shape. I plan to use it to fly about 500 hours/year for both work and experience building.
Any help would be appreciated. Any books I should read on buying a plane? Anything!! I'm all ears.
Thanks in advance
