Reerun knows how to fly the uber rich guys.


I flew a few rich guys, and banged my head against the wall as an instructor for years. I still fly for a company from time to time, but don't instruct any more due to a lack of time and it doesn't pay for shit.

It's been 12 years since I sent my last student on a checkride.

I don't know what it's like now, but the written is pretty easy. Just memorize everything.

I have been thinking about buying a Twin Comanche or a 250/260 Comanche. I don't need a lot in the dash, but a wing leveler and altitude hold would be nice.

We have a 3rd kid on the way, so I might have to step up to a larger plane. The 3rd row seating is a joke.

I noticed that.

CFI (certified flight instructor) cost is $60/hr. Don't know what the school/CFI split is, but that is not much in CFI's pocket.

The Twin Comanche is a hell of lot cheaper than a Cirrus 20 or 22.

Why do you like the TC or a 250/260?

Efficiency and range.

They are fast for the fuel burn, and with tip tanks you can go a long way.


Cirrus 20's and 22's are $$$$$. For that money I can step up to a turbo charged Bonanza (which I have seriously considered) with O2, 6 seats and still have a nice dash, and for the G3 price I can get into a Turbine Bonanza and smoke everyone.


I have around 5000 hours, for me I just want to get to where I want to go quickly without crushing the bank account. I also want to be able to resale easily and get my money back. I wouldn't mind a twin to build time for my retirement job.

Very serious question from a GA Noobie:

Does the cirrus parachute capability factor into your purchase decision? Knowing you would have a safety chute to protect your family a variable? Or is it a marketing gimmick??

I haven't flown in about 10yrs.

loved it though. Have about 15-20hrs logged.

If I had the money to spare I'd def want to get a private pilot's license.

Was gonna go to CMSU for aviation school. Didn't do it, prob one of my biggest regrets in life.
