    Actual weights, favor please

    Sincere thanks for that! Empty weights are perfect! I'm sure some folks park in their hangars with full fuel... So the 210 wt. was also interesting! Thanks again.. it tells me that the local Cessnas will weigh less than the 210...

    Actual weights, favor please

    Obviously, we ain't towing a max jet with a garden tractor. I think most here are GA pilots. The reason I want a multiple of different ac is that there are more than his plane at our grass strip... Others could use it as well. If you don't want to share what info you have, fine... Why do I...

    Actual weights, favor please

    Had a friend who tried to make a "dolly" to tow behind his garden tractor with a lazy Susan (so as not to over turn the nosewheel) he under engineered the whole affair, and it's back to the drawing board for him... Plus it's on grass, so....

    Aero Commander twins pros/cons

    See, there's the problem... This is a "mad money" spend... We don't need no spreadsheets! This is for aesthetics, classic looks, feels. It's like who wouldn't want a Staggerwing Beech? A Cessna 195.... A cabin WACO? My stable: Cessna Cardinal RG (the most "practical" of the team) Navion Lake...

    Aero Commander twins pros/cons

    Thanks for that clarification... It still remains that an Aero Commander played the role of Air Force One for Ike.

    Aero Commander twins pros/cons

    So, if one had mad money to spend on a twin, why wouldn't he buy a twin commander (and a Panama hat).... Or.... Why would he buy such a thing?

    Can a STC be removed?

    I know that, for example, if you buy a Cherokee 6 with the 7th seat, you have to remove it, and do some paperwork because Basic Med limits you to 6 souls aboard. I don't know if the aircraft STC for this target aircraft with the weight STC has any structural component to the STC... Otherwise I...

    Can a STC be removed?

    So, if you purchase an aircraft that has an STC that increases gross weight... say from over the limit for Basic Med down the original certified gross of 6000 pounds? I.E.: Original gross: 6000# STC Gross: 6750# Remove STC, revert to 6000# gross.
