Default For Jay Beckman

Jeff,

Yes, the Comanche is old, however it does have a Garmin 430, nice
autopilot, and 84 gals of fuel.

We are looking at a proposal to sell the Arrow and replace it with a
1998 or newer 182 with a Garmin GPS. If we did this, we would need to
increase the buy-in from $2,000 to $4,000 and the monthly dues from $85
to $100. The new 182 would rent for $93/hr (tach time) wet, same price
as the Arrow goes for right now.

Would this make our club more or less attractive to you? Just
wondering how prospective members would view this plan.

Thanks,
Dan

hear good things about those planes.

I'll also put in a shareless plug for Phoenix flyers, a non-profit
member-owned flying club. Excellent rates and good maintenance on 2
Archers, 1 Arrow, and 1 Commanche 260 based at CHD and DVT.
