If you could own....

Post by steelrain27 »

-P-51: because of it's history and I've always thought it was WHAT an airplane should look like...captured my imagination like nothing else.

-Something small and quirky with floats or hull to land somewhere remote to hike and fish. Seawind? Lake amphib?

-BBJ to fly the friends and family around!

Stop dreaming ... if you want a truly great (but completely unknown) airplane at a fantastic price, look no further:

Wanna go fast at Reno on a budget? Ok, get one of these:

and wedge an R-3350 into it.

I'd have to say that I would want

1) Twin Otter with amphibs.
2) MU-2, something fast and squirrely, with the noise to match.
3) And for luxury, the Falcon 900
