Looking for a 6 seater for hire for a week-ish

[Blantoon]

Hello,

I'm looking to go on a little tour around Europe with a few friends of mine. I've started hunting around for a 6 seater for hire that can do the job, something like a Cherokee6/bonanza/C206/C210 perhaps. An economical twin would also be fine.

So far I've found it difficult track many 6 seaters down. Could anybody give me any advice?

I'm looking for something that can take 5+1 average weight people, a little baggage and a half decent fuel load. Also for it to be available for hire for a trip of a few days. I'm located just north of London, but I wouldn't mind travelling a decent distance for the right hire.

Thanks

Try googling modern air Fowlmere

Looks like they have a Saratoga not too far from me. I'll give them a call, thanks.

I had their G-JPOT for ~3 weeks, lovely plane, great place to rent from, recommend 100%.

Fowlmere will have 2 Saratogas to hire in a few weeks. One with fixed gear which while 3-4 knots slower than the retractable will carry more load.

Have you got any more details of the other one by any chance?

PA32-301, pretty similar to JPOT except fixed gear and electric flaps. 1989 model. Bendix King avionics KLN89B GPS, KFC150 autopilot with flight director. It's getting some minor works done at the moment and then should be on "the fleet" and on modern air website.

There's a late Saratoga (G-ELLA) at White Waltham.

White Walthams plane is not available for short term renters.

Anyone know what the status of G-KNCG is? Home
This was my other option when I had G-JPOT last summer.
