my guess would be about 15K for a Westwind Initial.

I think that mine was about $16K in '99 dollars.

Hidden Costs

Don't forget the additional costs of treating the deafness you will get after flying the Bagel Bomber for just a few hours, and the chiropractor bill after loading bags into the baggage compartment while bending under the engine.

Fortunately it wasn't my $16K

Actually, the WW is a great airplane. It's slow . . . . but it's ugly!

The systems are a little crude, but the performance is there, and the external baggage space is phenomenal . . . you will unload more from a WW than ou will fit in a Suburban, and you don't have to drag it through the interior like you do on the Falcon 10 or 20 and most Lears.

Say what you want about the Canoe, but it is a coast-to-coast machine with an enviable dispatch ratio and safety record. I spent alot of hours in that airplane, most of them very enjoyable.

Don't forget about Simuflite, which would be my preference . . .

Yo DM, I glad to be among the ranks as a Bagel Bomber driver!

Just glad I have a bunch of tailwheel time, its like landing in a DC-3!

Hey, Dave:

I'm glad you are enjoying it over there, I sure did. I am really going to be envious when you guys get your week up in Alaska this summer. I just finished my last halibut steak a few weeks ago, and I am ready for more.

Best Regards,

DM
