AH-HA, it finally happened; I got one up on Nasa!!!
The C320 at AF might not be there now, but it sure was in 1999, along with its stablemate a V35 Bonza. It was parked in the last row next to the Hempels crowd.
How would a B350 shape up in comparison to the Nasa-Bird? Too thirsty?
The Eclipse would sure fill the BE58 role - as would perhaps a TBM700 and even the Meridian, and the Campervan will probably be the eventual PA31/C400 replacement. PC12 et al will be the corporate choice to replace the C90/B200.
Still can't convince any Aust financier that a new single turbine is a better pick than a 20 year old piston twin or an antique Kingair/Cheyenne..... ah well.
