Ok, there's one GA plane you could wear a flight suit while climbing in and not feel/look like a dip.

 

[wickedsprint]

Just buy a used Lear or Mig

Not bad,still stuck in the piston world.I Like to support the oil companies ,but a jet would be too much support.

If possible would you get in that thing?

This one's A-HB, so you can do the mx yourself.

Oh Hell yes.

 

[KRyan]

I love the equipment list!

I wonder if he used to own a blue airplane with a nekkid woman on the nose! (see my other post).

I got a kick out of it too:

"Assorted switches, toggles"

In case you don't recognize the name representing the plane, it's motocross legend Bob 'Hurricane' Hannah, able to bunny hop Schwinn Stingrays lengthwise over a 1972 Impala in a single bound.

They've had that for sale for awhile

If you guys had the cash would any of you pick it up?

I would, it should actually be quite economical if it has long enough legs.

That'll get me across the Atlantic with my favorite stop, Reykjavik, in the middle for fuel.

I wonder what the payload would be on something like that?

Full Fuel Payload: 475 pounds

Love the "Time to climb (FL250): 5 min"

Oh absolutely. The day I'm diagnosed with terminal cancer and win the lottery, I'm going to get one of these. Heck, I might get two so there can be one fueled up and ready to go as soon as I empty the tanks on the first one.

What is something like this worth, ballpark?

Plenty for me. Anything over 250 pounds takes me and all my luggage.
