Thank you for all the replies
The 20k is just for the purchase. I have flow C172, C150, Piper Cherokee, Lambada, Samba XXL, Skipper and soon I hope to fly a Slingsby T67 Firefly.
So I have flown all of these but I still lie awake wondering what to buy! I tell myself that a Microlight would be perfect as I have access to C210 as previously stated.
I sat in an X-Air at a local show last summer and the owner said
'Jesus if you have mates that have GA aircraft what you need son is my X-Air' I will be flying from Westmeath to Waterford which as the crow flies is about 80Nm but will I do it in an X-Air at 65mph cruise? I really don't know
I do like the Socato TB-9 Tampico, and there happens to be one foe sale at an airfield not far from me. I did fly the aircraft a few years ago and it seemed like a nice looked after plane but that was a few years ago. 1986 currently going for 17,500
