Hi All,
Does anybody know of a well kept Seneca V in the London area/S.East for hire? Am looking specifically for this type.
Kind regards,
EG:ok:

I can only assume they are still there as they are still listed, although I haven't dealt with them in 2 -3 years. Shaun did his hiring out through another company Called Eagle Flight inc.

Out of interest, why a V?
Compare its figures with a III, and wonder how anyone ever goes further than downwind in a V... Its payload/range makes it barely useable as a four-seater...
Pretty instrument panel, though!

If you would like to fly a smart III, PM me... I might even do your check-out! :{

How about using G-INFO on the CAA site to find the owners of the V's in the UK and contact them directly with a hire proposal. Someone who may not normally offer their a/c for hire might be keen to put some occasional use on their plane if your offer tempts them.

Why specifically this type?

Hi EDDNR,
Many thanks for the kind suggestion; to be honest I've been trying to track down the owners by phone at the various aerodromes that the aircraft are 'normally' based. We shall see what prevails. Thx again.
Hi Bose-X,
Personal preference/time on type/the devil one knows/
I take it you're tempted to sell me the merits of a Diamond et al...
Kind regards,

You take it wrong, I have no intention of trying to sell you anything. I have nothing against Seneca, I have many hundreds of hours in them.
I was just curious.

Still very specific though. Identical flight characteristics on the Seneca III (which might be far easier to find for hire)!
