Let's see.................name a NEW airplane you can fill all the tanks,
all 10 seats, 50 pounds of baggage for each PAX, and then go 5 hours at 310
Kts.

And as far as that goes, try to find a NEW airplane that will carry more,
further, faster, and into more un-improved strips than the 54 year old
Cessna Skywagon. Nada!

The Cirrus is nice, but it's kind of a "girly man" airplane.(With respects
to Arnold!)
