50 hours ICUS might kill the idea..

This doesn't 'legally' apply to PVT ops (I think), but most aircraft of that capacity will be turbine and will usually require 50 hrs ICUS + Base check + Line check for insurance requirements..

Might be cheaper to charter it in stead or wait and get a job flying the machine you want to hire.

Alternatively, can you get a mate to fly another PA-31 / C404 etc and fly it with two a/c in stead? That will allow you the baggage space with room for fuel too
