:p

If I had any choice it would be today.

I have finally learnt a word called patience.

The Caravan has pros and cons... The main Con is putting together $1.2 million USD... The main pro we all know they are great aircraft.

The biggest problem is being competitive against PA31's, 402's but more importantly 406's...;) No good having an aircraft if you cannot achieve your desired hourly rate. Caravan in Darwin would not be competitive for freight for a start...

Then there is the ole 1 donk problem...

There have been some great debates here on Prune about the 208...

Oh and BTW don't go being friendly to me on here as undoubtedly the many that love me will have an attack at you...
