Question for 45 drivers.
We are looking at getting a 45 and I was wondering what recurring issues you find with them.
We only plan to fly about 300 hrs/year.
You folks really run them out and are there any parts that just don't hold up?
anything special to look for in a visual inspection?
Any questions to ask the current operator?
We are going to do a prebuy @ BAS-BDL and depending on the plane probably do an A, B, C, or D Phase as well, if any of them are nearing the due time.
How reliable is the APU and it's accessories?
How about cabin stuff - like seat operation/oven/mapco/entertainment?
And the big one -- the Lav... any real problems with it? is it externally serviced?
Do you get 4 hours of range? and what do you use for reserves?
Thanks for all your help.
