That looks great! Congratulations!
So were all 210s of that era possessors of an ending of RC on their tail number?
Dang JCrizzle!!!! I am one jealous sumbeotch. Feel free to stop by and pick me up if you're ever gallivanting around SC OK.
Don't know. That's actually not the original tail number. I think it was -09S or something like that. It's still placarded on tha dash. 200RC came later. Cool number so I'm gonna keep it.
You wouldn't want to change the R in the N number to a J..??
There's an idea!!
Wonder if 200JC is available?Don't know. That's actually not the original tail number. I think it was -09S or something like that. It's still placarded on tha dash. 200RC came later. Cool number so I'm gonna keep it.
I'll need a few more days to complete the insurance required (read excessive) training and we'll do it.
Wonder if 200JC is available?
What's that? More pics? Because I keep checking this thread expecting to see more pics, there have been no more picsI also have an idea.........

Didn't you fly it back with a CFI? Were they requiring more than 5 hours?
And an IPC? Guess getting your IFR in may don't count for much...
So wat are the differences between flying 200RC and 55WB? Retract Heat is the obvious bit, but what else?Yeah, what he said! Stuff definitely coming at you faster.

More importantly, what are the differences between giving local pilot friends a ride in 200RC and 55WB
Not that much so far. Retracts obviously. 200RC is fuel injected so start procedure is different. This airplane does NOT like a hot start so there will be some planning considerations in the future. Due to the way the exhaust is routed CHT's and TIT (turbo inlet temps) are more critically watched, but I have the JPI700 for that.
From an avionics standpoint, I have an HSI now, so I have to learn more about that. I like it so far.
The biggest difference there is 10 more training hours for the stupid insurance company...
that's just 6 flights to Ozzies and a few very slow flights to Hard8The biggest difference there is 10 more training hours for the stupid insurance company...

Or one run down to @Jay Honeck's
You might consider training for the commercial ticket. Kill two birds and all that. Congrats on the plane.
That's a really good idea. Not only get the required dual instruction done for insurance and the CPL, but provide a reason to learn all the corners and edges of the performance envelope of that airplane. Making John that much more confident/competent/comfortable.You might consider training for the commercial ticket. Kill two birds and all that. Congrats on the plane.
