Thoughts: It sounds like I want a Mooney for speed & fuel economy, a Dakota for lifting, and Bonanza for size--or something like that! That brings me back to my original request, for a means to make direct comparisons between the various choices out there--I'm having trouble determining what & how I need to make trade-offs without that sort of tool.... Navion? http://www.wpafb.af.mil/museum/annex/an29.htm http://www.warbirdalley.com/l17.htm It'll lift almost as much as a Dakota and you'll have 'almost' a warbird - if you choose to paint it as such. g http://www.navionskies.com/Photos/Navions-Tour%20026.jpg http://www.navionskies.com/Photos/Navions-Tour%20027.jpg http://www.navionskies.com/Photos/Navions-Tour%20004.jpg Montblack |

Navion? Book cruise of 138 knots. Might do better re-engined. Margy? George Patterson Coffee is only a way of stealing time that should by rights belong to your slightly older self. |
