Very interesting, Dave. It sounds as though it really is a big improvement, but that there are still some problems that might steer one away. Jeffrey, I wish I could, but I can't. Insurance wouldn't touch me at this point, anyway. Since it is taking me so long (5 years), probably my first airplane will be a twin, but probably a Seneca or 310. I can't afford one now--or at least, I can't afford one in good condition--so I will just bide my time. . . .
