Hey all,
There is a distinct lack of multi-engine aircraft available in the Baltimore area for time building. I'm thinking about actually BUYING a twin and leasing it out to people in need of multi time. For the naysayers "oh my gosh, thats going to be expensive.... you dont know what you're doing....etc" I already own two personal aircraft and i'm finishing up an A&P certificate here this summer by restoring a plane, so yes, I am well aware the costs. I have been doing my cost/insurance/mx etc homework and am looking at a Cessna 310R, Beech Travelair, or Piper Seneca. I am trying to keep price somewhere between $150-$175/hr DRY and rental would be in 10hr blocks. You would have to come multi-engine rated already. This wouldn't be a plane used for multi-engine training. This would be a well maintained cross-country machine. The only thing that i'm lacking is the market research. A plane on the ground costs money. Is there any interest out there?
