SB - Even a Ferrari has TWO doors and I haven't seen many ragtop aircraft lately, have you? Come on, you're calling the mail slot in the back a door!?
I don't often fly around with Roseanne but I'll let her know you suggested pies on the wing...

The TB may be an attractive bird for the likes of us - flying nerds - but I have yet to come across a "bird" that was excited by the looks of a particular aircraft. Most seem uninterested except about the flying itself. In terms of sex appeal I think modern composites are more likely to win points even among the blokes.

Had a trial lesson just yesterday, our shiny DA40D parked next to a geriatric PA28 with a flat tyre. It's just too easy to win them over, even with a "shiny" tin can right next to the DA, the difference is just too obvious, and I dare say it's in favor of the fast glass.

Ok, so a Mooney may look cool, and the TB20, but if we're talking "regular" tourers and trainers there's no contest.
