Great aircraft. Pretty much same performance as a Seneca at low level (turbo charging keeps power in the Seneca) but burns more fuel to achieve it. Similar load and range. Handles beautifully in the air. On the ground can suffer shimmy and bounce! On flapless approaches the nose obscures the runway. Difficult to get into the pilot's seat, comfortable when there.

Has seatbelt to keep you from bumping yer head
