treholer, think about it ... do some simple wait and balace examples even or see how many 'operators' in the nz directory have senecas and aztecs as apposed to dutches (or grumman couger for that matter)I would much rather do a rating in a six seater with a higher payload to have a better chance at starting part time charter or air- ambulance work/ATO... than take my chances in a rat race large school scene... where you would only benefit after spending another 13 or so grand on a C-Cat and instructing is NOT what everyone wants/ should have to do if they are prepared to hit the road and see whats available out there
