I only ask the question because I'm under the (possibly ignorant) impression that the older a fleet gets, the more it costs to maintain/run it. Granted, Cirri (I can't make myself say Cirruses) have far more advanced avionics packages than what most of you freight dawgs fly, right? And I don't know if the acquisition costs outweigh the cost savings over time.
If it did become cheaper to operate a Cirrus than, say, an old Baron or a 210, would the freight companies look to something like that to lower costs?
And is 400-500lbs of payload adequate for a light freight operation? Or does that defeat the purpose?
