At the top of the list is hispanic people that will tell me they do not speak english and then when I get them to the hospital they talk to the doctor like it was their first language!

    My PPL hours are not on hold until I buy, I am flying weekly and would like to buy. I am not very far into my research of different aircraft I've looked at the 310, the comanche, various beech's.. and am a long way from saying "this is the one".

    600# total family weight LOL. I will be flying for my business (300 to 500 miles) and I currently make 10+ hour drives to shooting matches across the country I was hoping to start flying to. I assume the extra cost for getting my ppl would be the extra hours it takes to get the twin rating?

    High time 150 questions.

    Well I called this morning to go pick it up and was told someone from out of state sent them a deposit check by mail. If it doesn't make it by tomorrow I'll have another shot at it. Thanks for all the help. This is the most informative forum I've ever been a member of!

    High time 150 questions.

    Upon further inspection, Paint is actually pretty decent. I'd say a 6.5/10 and the interior is 3.5/10 its totally flyable no corrosion. Runs smooth fires right up. Everything on the dash works well. BUT, It would require an interior before my wife would fly in it LOL. Some have said I could get...

    According to the owner (he deals in crop dusters ect) it runs strong and doesn't need an overhaul yet. Welcomed me to bring a mechanic to give it a look.

    High time 150 questions.

    I had that feeling, however I was unsure of what an overhaul might cost. In my research I've seen a wide range of prices people are claiming their overhaul cost them. The guy is asking 8... I thought if I could pick it up 7500 range I might could get my ppl finished up in it and have a project...

    High time 150 questions.

    I came across a 1971 150 today for $8,000. It's at 12,000 TT and 2400 SMOH compression is good, and it runs/flys great. The guy who has it bought it for 3 of his employees to get their ppl and they are done with it. Paint is good and interior is a 5/10. I'd be using it to finish my PPL it's in...
