This posting (and replies) is very interesting to me. I own an old C310
and the expense and difficulty of maintenance is beginning to get to me
(especially with the threat of a new spar AD on all 310s). The DA-42
looks like a great substitute, and I have talked to someone else who is
interested in partnering on this plane. However, he sat in the DA40
whose cabin is ?identical to the DA42. He told me that after he closed
the canopy it felt like he was in a plane as small (or smaller) than a
C150. If true it won't be very useful for trips of any signficant
length, especially with several passengers.

What's do you think about the new twin DA-42 from Diamond ?
