Jose,

I thinking you might be right. A thought that came up today was to find a good, well cared for 35 or 33 Bonanza with some sort of relatively modern avionics and find a partner in it. Nothing too fancy, just a good servicable machine with a full IFR panel in it and some sort of IFR cert. GPS.

Like you say, the numbers might be advantageous that route. I have been spending $2,500 to $3,000 a month working on the instrument rating and building time. Of course, that included instructor time, and I was flying two and three days a week.

Also seems that working on a Commercial would help the insurance too.

Still brainstorming, but you fellows have some good ideas. That's why I asked in the first place!!

Thanks,

RC
