sorry for not being specific on the question about very new B2 vs older B3. i wasn't trying to make an exact comparison of two specific ships. more of a theoretical if both were mid-time (for their age), comparable avionics, etc..
great point RVDT on the roughly same internal gross weight. i will probably be doing 80% of the flying around sea level so not a huge necessity for the hot and high performance.
i've found a really nice B2 (2008 so has VEMD) and even glass for PFD and MFD. now i'm opening up a whole new can of worms! call me crazy but i love being able to scan the traditional 6 pack. anyone that has made the transition to all glass end up liking it more?
thnx for all the info guys.. has really helped!!
