    With all of the annuals, extra maintenance and upgrades. It's pretty difficult, (If not impossible) to get your money back on the sale. The people that are actually buying airplanes either really love aviation, crazy or a little bit of both.... o_O

    The FBO Doesn’t Like You - What do you do?

    I'm in your part of the world, And I probably been to the flight school you are talking about, (Been to all of them in the area at least once). Pay as you go with all of the schools, (Like POA mentioned to me when I first started) If you don't like the school....find another one. If you give up...

    I'm still trying to understand the situation with a Debonair vs Comanche. Both seem like wonderful airplanes but if the Debonair is easy to land and easy to fly I keep hearing that it's for experienced pilots only. Pilots that have a lot more than my 100 hours of flight time. Why do you think...

    I'm no expert on Beech products but it sounds like a recipe for a gear collapse which happens to be a few for sale like this one: https://www.trade-a-plane.com/search?category_level1=Single+Engine+Piston&make=BEECHCRAFT&model=36+BONANZA+36&listing_id=2324218&s-type=aircraft

    More Piper Comanche questions!

    Is it because the landing gear is up higher than most airplanes including the Comanche? Or is it possibly the visibility? So far for me the Archer has been the easiest for me. Don't need much rudder at all, and I learned how to fly on a Champ...:( Short final, are Comanches more difficult...

    I'm new to complex airplanes but when you say craftsmanship, are you talking about how it was built and the material being used....just trying to understand here. I live in Florida so corrosion is a big problem and I haven't seen a corroded Comanche yet...everything else though, Bonanza's...
