Call your insurance agent. 210's have a terrible accident rate and as
such have very high premiums. On average you are looking at
double-triple the cost compared to a similar Bonanza such as the one I
have. Six seat, RG, etc. The same phenomenon affects Maules. On
average the pilots who buy Maules cannot for the life of them keep them
on the runway. For that reason the insurance premium on a Maule is much
higher than on similar aircraft. Call your agent and compare similar
aircraft with similar hull values.
