This question is often asked and explored by Super Cub owners. I've read a
bit about it in the SC forums. Hardest part of the decision is that it is
like virginity.... once you've done it, you've done it and there isn't much
hope of going back.
Another idea about some of the cheap twins is that they are approaching
their salvage value. Many have pretty good radios, and if you have
relatively sound, even run out engines, you may be getting the airframe,
accessories, and interior for pennies on the dollar. On the other hand, you
also have to deal with pretty old systems. Old hoses, bladders, electrical,
and hydraulics take big bucks to recondition.
