I disagree, a competent professional pilot should be able to handle all of things you listed above, especially on a small twin turbine. Although, I agree that it's a much bigger job than most owners understand.
Really? Garrets are more fuel efficient, faster and louder! You will get more bang for your buck with an MU2 (any model). If you buy a Beech, you will be paying for the name and expensive parts.

Oh, Boy! Do you preach what you hear / read? An MU2 is as dangerous as the next airplane. High bank angles and slow speeds with spoilerons is a bad idea. Each aircraft requires specific training to operate, and the MU2 is no exception. I'm sure you're saying it's a dangerous aircraft because of it's history, well, what do you have to say about Cirrus? Is Cirrus also a dangerous aircraft because of it's history?Whatever you do, don't get an MU-2. NOT for beginners. Period.

Feel free to send me a PM...I do what JRH does, but in the turbine market. I'd be happy to offer my advice.
Alex.
I was going to say, have there been any accidents due to lack of training once the SFAR took effect? I can't seem to think of any.
I have not heard of any.I was going to say, have there been any accidents due to lack of training once the SFAR took effect? I can't seem to think of any.
You didn't answer "Lodestar". Coupled with the fact that you have a hanger full of airplanes and that none of them is a Lodestar...well, I'm afraid you''re a loser.
I do believe that will be a tight fit in a c90 (it's been a while since I've been in one, though). The 7th seat in a 90 is a belted potty, if I remember correctly. A 200 should do it without a problem, but that means more moola.Ok, I got an email from my him today...
He says he plans to personally use the airplane 8-10 days per month and that his company would use it an additional 2-4 days per month.
The longest route example he gave me was 900 NM, KEFD-KPSO. Most were less than 300 NM.
Then he says he wants the plane to be able to carry 7 people + a pilot, "with gear".
He says he has allocoted all the money needed to operate a C90 and that costs will not be a problem. He seems to really want a C90 with PT6's and seems to have his mind made up. Will it haul 7 people and bags over any kind of distance, even if half of them are children?
So what is the max range of a C90 with a butt in every seat and 20 lbs of luggage per person?
