Talk to me.

My credit isn't what it used to be. But if the annual isn't good on the Seneca, I plan on looking into putting 40% down on a Cirrus SR22. I just gotta wait for the right deal. It's a seller's market right now unfortunately.

That's why there's a monthly deposit that's not dictated by my hourly total. You can manage the hourly costs anyway you like but if you buy a midtime engine and are putting 40$ back per hour on top of everything else and it craps out before tbo you're still not gonna have enough. So how can...

Interesting, I'll look into that information. Last thing I wanna do is fry my engines lol.

I'm fine with that, just excited at the thought of having 50 hours in a twin. I'm gonna see if the insurance will cut me some slack if 2 seats can be taken out. I'll never load 6 people in short of an emergency situation. The plane is getting annual done next week. I'll have a better idea if...

Might you be someone who knows? I'm certainly listening.

I dont calculate my cost per hour like you guys do. My cost per house is fuel+oil=hourly cost. The mainence fund is and always has been for me a set price per month or per issue. So this seneca is gonna cost me 115$ an hour to fly. I'm sure I could factor in hanger, mx, monthly payment &...

It's the initial cost of a cirrus that's just a bit too high. I can afford MX and fuel on a twin rather reliable and figure about 25k a year a budget. +/- what's needed. It's not a cheap twin (I could get nice 310 for this price), I don't think I ever used that terminology at all. And I only...

Wow tons of great advice here. Thanks for the warm welcome back. I am waiting to hear back from a few underwriters on insurance.

Yea 58W is gone to Houston

I mentioned that I was going to continue my IFR training in the first post but also its very important to again mention that my mission isn't a "get there itis" type mission. I can pick and choose the date in which I leave based on weather. I wont be flying in anything other then VFR, and even...

I don't want a single unless it's a cirrus & those are out of my price range atm. Yes I am a big guy. 6'3 285 It's got cr props so that's a huge plus and an autopilot, never had one of those before.

Long time since I've posted, wanted to get some input on my next airplane. I've done research on the Piper Seneca's and it just so happens a good friend of mine is selling his, gonna get a great deal on it as well. Haven't flown since March 2015. I'm a low time pilot (135hrs) all in a PA-28...

lmao, points!

I wouldnt do it either. :no::no::no::no:

LMAO, I get the mental picture of "I AM LEGEND" with Will Smith, only online.... {scene in the record store} "please respond to my post" *starts to cry "I need you to respond to my post" Then outta the blue, THEHULK responds. ;)

Whats your thoughts on a student pilot flying solo at night with beer and propane, over gross?

I flew in tuesday evening to around Corpus and during my final I was getting tossed around like a volley ball at a concert. Interesting, but I just forced the plane to stay where I wanted it with input. No big deal.

You two.............. *shucks young love

Hawka, hocky hacka... all the same.:D
