Turbulents
I saw an add for a turbulent in pilot magazine for under £4000 and just wondered how that could be. It says it has a new permit. Just got me thinking how feasible it might be to own and operate one of those in the future so I've compiled this list of questions:
1:Turbulent: cruising speed?
2:Turbulent: aerobatic?
3:Turbulent: easy to fly/handling?
4:Turbulent: endurance?
5:Is insurance compulsory, if so how much per annum, rough estimate?
6:Roughly how much might fuel cost per hour?
7:Roughly how much might hangarage cost per year or month or whatever?
8:Hangarage available at White Waltham or any other west London aerodrome?
9:How much might maintenance cost and how often is it required?
10:Any other hidden costs of aeroplane ownership?
11:Is any plane costing under £4000 going to be falling to pieces?
Because it occured to me that this would be an extremely cheap way of ammasing lots of flying time while doing it in what seems to be a nice, open cockpit tailwheel plane.
Thanks to anyone who can answere a fraction of these questions.
