Anybody know why the high requirement for the twin Comanche? -
compared to the 310?

If the second statement is true, perhaps he should consider a single
for a couple hundred hours.

The insurance lady said he needed 500 hours TOTAL in any airplane
before they would insure him at all in the Comanche. Only 200 for
something like a Seneca or a 310.

The reason we're pushing for the twin is that the boy is airline bound
and doing this initial training in the twin will give him a good leg
up when he starts having the total time needed for a commuter.

If we're lucky, then if he sells the airplane for what he paid or
better, the training and time building will be very cheap.
