The Commache 250 that was on the line here was famous for picking up
CARB ICE at any time. It would even ice up if it were under full
power! So use your carb heat and make sure it is working properly. I
have talked to other Commache owners who report the same thing. I
don't know why the Commache's Lycoming 540 tends to pick up carb ice
so easily, but keep that one in mind.

Well we finally went and paid for our new bird. A 1964 Comanche 250.
After months of deciding to buy it or get a small plane. We went down as
they were doing the annual on it. All turned out good. All compression
72/80 with only 10 hours on the plane in the last year. Our first
projects a Paint, interior, new panel, and a venire throttle, and
what ever else comes along the way. Does anyone have or fly one? How
much per hour would you say it runs? Insurance, Cost? I got it with only
150 hours and no retract for 2400 a year though AOPA. If anyone can help
me along the way with onwership with there experiences? DO's and Dont's?
All will help thanks?
