MU-2F question and opinions needed

[Tinpusher]

2500 hrs MU2 time...loved every minute...great pilots airplane...built like a tank...I do think its reputation for being quirky is true but once you get used to it you'll love it...I think its a great choice if your in a market with little Kingair competition...passengers with a choice will choose the Beech every time! Good luck

Interesting maintainance note: only 2 canceled trips due to mx out of 900 attempted departures. A/C received excellent regular maintainence however.

Have flown F,M,N, P, Marquis. Excellent a/c will do everything
book says. would highly recommend a flight safety checkout, air&
ground school. The Mu-2 has been put through some of the most
rigorous reviews by the FAA because of accident rate and came
thru fine. Many of accidents due to low-time improperly trained
pilots and other pilot error situations not specific to an MU-2.
Call international jet in Tulsa( ask for Bob Kidd) he is an authority
on a/c and specific serial #s.
