Conquest II would be an easy transition.

My dream prop plane. Sadly, seven figures is out of reach right now.

Is that your personal airplane?

Yes

Wow. Baller. I’m guessing you don’t fly for a living lol.

ATN needs to step his game up[emoji23]

Not any more lol. But there’s a guy on the mitsi owners forum that’s a mainline captain so it’s definitely doable!

If you can swallow the care and feeding of a turbine you simply can’t touch the value of an MU-2.

Yep. That’s where the value is, no doubt. I want the range of the Conquest, though.

And that is going to narrow down the list for sure lol. Great airplane, but you can buy a lot of $3/gallon fuel in the midwest with what you're saving on the airframe. By hour 4 I'm ready to get out anyway.

60 degrees on January 12th at 9:17pm, while a warm and steady rain falls to wash away the last remnants of earlier snow. Naught but Christmas lights shining in the dark note that this is the heart of Winter in 2018.

My budget version of a water canon salute
Last trip for the 135 shop. The weather in KCLE today made the trip extra fun
Onto the great new adventures. Hope they will eventually be well paid, uneventful and come with a tray table

Not quite a personal best in a GA prop but getting close:

Come on up to CDW today. 250kts is showing 340 over the ground when you're north/northeast bound. Going to be a fun day.

Took advantage of a long PDX overnight the other week and spent the day on the coast.

Oh snap!!! How are you guys liking the NEO so far? Any talk about the troubles that others have had with the PW1100 at HA seeing as you guys cross so much water?

Last time I was there, it was so hot that the CRJ we were on thought it had a bleed leak and a hydraulic over temp.

It's only been flying ETOPS for 10 days now and just one airframe, but so far no issues. It *seems* like PW solved the problems they were having. The only ongoing concern I know of is that start times can be REALLY long (like 4 minutes per engine long), but it's burning about 2.2K per side per hour which is crazy when you think about the fact that it's a 200K airplane.
