"Larry Dighera" wrote I don't know about that. *We just scrapped a business trip via GA due to cost differential - going GA would have been $1,300 just in fuel, via the airlines the same two people could go for $500 total and not have to worry about potential delays due to winter weather. Perhaps if you had been able amortize the cost of that flight over four seats instead of two (as is possible in the PA28-235/6) it might have worked out better. We have six seats as well (light twin), but only two people needed to go on this trip which is typical of most of our trips (1 or 2 people). *We have considered getting a fast single, but we also occasionally need the load-carrying capacity, room, and speed of a light twin. It might be that using a modern fast single can meet 90% of your needs and will save a lot on fuel while not giving up much speed. If you need more seats and cargo, fly two planes :-) Cheers |
