I spoke with someone at the Airshares office at Caldwell, NJ, and got a
good overview of the price structure for the SR-20. They don't actually
have one available there yet, as there isn't enough interest at the
moment. But I don't qualify for the SR-22 yet... I have about 195 total
hours, and their insurance requires 350 + active pursuit of an instrument
rating (which, incidentally, I earned a few months ago). So I'm really
only lacking the flight hours, and the SR-20 sounds like a great way to
move up without stepping up too much in too short a time.


I thought about Airshares for a while. I still have it in the back of my
brain. But, at least for now, I decided to go the "club route" instead.
I'm in a club which includes a 182 and a 182RG, as well as a couple of
172s.

The down side, as compared to the Cirrus, is that none of these are a
Cirrus. That is one hell of a nice airplane. I even deliberately avoided
the open house Airshare had at CDW a little while ago, knowing what would
occur if I went.

But, just to be mean to myself, what are they planning to charge for their
-20s?
