It's a jet! :-))
That's also in the range for a TBM 700 and 850 turboprops.
Besides, if the owner can afford over a million dollars for a toy they
can afford 20 or $30 thousand for insurrance.

Did he happen to mention how many hours to get checked out and to make
that insurance company happy? :-)) I'd bet it'll be some where
between 100 and 200 hours for single pilot.


I guess it is not out of line, but I still gasp at the numbers.

I'm not used to playing with the big league, price wise, and never will be.

I always thought that the rule of thumb for float plane insurance to be 10%
of the value of the plane per year.
