AOPA Twin Comanche

Just wondering what you guys would do with that sweepstakes airplane if Phil
called you up and told you it was yours.

Keep or sell?

I'd get my Multi in it then sell it.

I would keep it and sell my current plane. For a twin, you can't
beat the speed for the fuel you burn. Then throw in all those
nice new toys......hmmmmm.....very nice airplane.

If I could swing the insurance I'd keep her for a while at
least...assuming I could pay the taxes.

There is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing
as simply messing around with airplanes.

If I had a pig, I could make a ham-and-cheese sandwich, if I had a cow
to make milk for cheese.

I'd sell the damn thing. The taxes would kill me.

Keep it, get my multi rating, use up that $5000 gas credit -- and then sell
it.

It's a cool plane, but I don't need (or want) a twin.

Keep it, sell my 235 (sorry Jay), get a partner, and put that money
toward finishing my Cub and paying for gas!!

What a life that would be.

All these people who are keeping it are prepared to pay the "income tax"
hit from winning the plane at the end of the tax year, right?

Whats the value of the Twin Commanche? And.. 30% of that is??? (just
rough round numbers...)

According to AOPA, the current value of the "project" is $225,500.

$67,650.

And in my case, the State of New Jersey wants their 6% income tax and 6% usage
tax, for an additional $27,060.

been looking for it.

no income tax here... but it would hit the "personal property tax" which
would be about $2K per year
