What is your typical mission to fly and what is your thought home base runway length?
I like exotic girls
Mainly to get around for fun and build hours with my goal to get into airlines. I've been told it has a STC 160. Probably lease it out privately as well.
The cosmetic condition of the aircraft I'm looking at is pretty nice and clean, has been restored with fresh paint and interior.
I do fancy the bubble windscreen over the piper where theres a structural bar going through it. home base RWY length is 1100 meters (YSBK, Aus).
I started off with a Warrior II 160HP so 10HP can't do that much damage?
