En-Route
Starting to do a little research. I have a friend that is headstrong about barons. Not that I'm against it, but I'm more open minded. I plan to partner up with 3 to 4 more guys so I can keep my mooney.
I want a twin that can carry 4 real adults and baggage. A rear door would be awesome because I'd like to be able to take my parents and in laws who are older. They are getting to the point where spending several hours in the car is hard on them.
Anything to consider or avoid? Is insurance or maintenance any friendlier on any particular make or model? I plan to keep it hangared and don't have any aspirations for landing at short fields. Will mostly stay in southeast, probably within 2-3 hours flight time of central ga.
I'd like to stay under 100k, but could go 125k if it's worth it. I'm instrument rated. I guess fiki would be nice but personally, I don't care to fly in a bunch of freezing clouds.
Thanks in advance.
