Post 4/5/6 place charter ship - Any suggestions ?

G'day People,

I am currently looking at economic reality of operating a 4-6ish place charter aircraft and would appriecate any suggestions regarding the most suitable type.

I have checked a few reference books but would like some practical 'in service' figures/opinions (most range figures I have are for flight at LRC @ Flight levels !)

The ideal machine would be able to carry Pilot + 4 or 5 pax, 60 odd Kg bags, 500-600 odd nautical miles. And of course its got to do it relatively comfortably and not cost the earth to operate !

Does this machine exist ?. Have currently been thinking B58/PA31 - What are these acft like with 5/6 bums on board ??

Do i need my head read ??

Any suggestions would be most appriecated!

Thanks.
