Seems like a very fine toy. Wish we had one... let's see, we've got Jet-A
on our lit grass strip. Imagine a night landing in the back yard with the
whine of that turbine as we select beta thrust. Wheeeee!

.... perhaps add some amphious floats.

Just need to increase our wealth by an order of magnitude... or two.

Does anyone have any experience with the Maule with the Allison turbine
engine ? The Maule with the Lycombing IO-540 is $170.M , where the
MT7-420 is going for $470.M new. I would have to add about $75.M in
options for either bird. What do you think about the Allison turbine in
a Maule ?

Thanks
