The result is:
- more demand at the bottom end and solid pricing for 150/2.
- Less demand for the older bo's and Mooneys.


I had a chat with a busy (Canadian) broker last December. He told me
at the time that the singles were selling fine (especially the simpler
ones, as you note), but that the used twin market had almost
completely collapsed.

I'd be surprised to see too many people buying a 150/2 for financial
reasons -- a Cherokee 140 costs about the same to purchase, fuel, and
maintain, but it has two more seats and flies faster. I think that
people who buy the 150/2 do it because of personal preferences for
style or handling.


All the best,
