When I spend 350grand I want people to look at my plane and say ohhhh,
ahhhh, not just pilots either….

Most people don't give a rodent's petunia where the wings are as long as
they stay on. High wing planes have lots of comfort and visibility
advantages, things I'd rather have for my pax as opposed to a certain
"look".

Cessna obviously knows how to make high wing small planes; why fix something
that isn't broken?
