Arrow Vs. Bonanza

[H46Bubba]

Here's my suggestion...do your commercial in 2 airplanes. Learn all the maneuvers in a fixed gear and practice the landings in the complex. It saved me a ton of money learning all the maneuvers & the cross countries in the fixed gear. My checkride was 1.5 in my plane and .4 in the Arrow.

Go with the Arrow. Simple to fly, loves to land and ver stable.

I've done everything. I just need to get some refresher training, get the complex endoresment, since my grreatinstructor forgot to do before I left DCA and take the practical/oral.

Call them and double check but I don't believe it's required if all you're doing is dual -- the catch being that when you take the checkride you won't be dual and you're technically flying the plane as PIC thus requireing the insurance. It's been about 6 months since I talked to them but that's how I remember it.....like I said, double check with them - don't rely on me!

Thanks. I'm going to head up there on Wednesday. I'm meeting alphaone tomorrow to give him the $0.25 Comair tour.

Too bad I have to work on Weds.....I live about 15 minutes from ISZ.

If you want to make the trek to CMH someday I'll give you the .25 tour of FSI's newest and best sim.....electric motion base (no hydraulics) and satellite mapping of the earth surface for the visuals (looks just like Google Earth!!).
