Aircraft Hire in Florida
I am sure that this has been posted before, but here goes anyway.
My wife has embarked on a quest to get me to go to Florida (along with her family and friends). While there, I thought I might do the 'tourist' thing, and go for a tootle around the bay.
To that ends, and with a group of us (who will want to go with me) I pose a question....
Does anyone know of anywhere in the Orlando / Sanford / Kissimmee area that has got a descent 6 seater for hire (with a destructor)?
As it will be with said instructor, this does open up a little, so single or twin (Saratoga / C210 / Seneca... possibly up to Navajo size if enough guests want to go)

There are not too many operators willing to hire 6 seaters because of the horrendous extra insurance requirements.
I've known one place take the middle row of seats out of a Seneca and have it declared as a four seater in order to be able to afford the insurance.
There is, however, someone running a couple of Seneca V aircraft at Orlando International.
I would strongly suspect that you could get a six seat aircraft from Air Orlando at Orlando Executive Airport.
Have a llok at www.airnav.com try "Airfields" tab and enter the identifier "KORL" (without the quotes).
It should list all operators at that airfield.
I know that www.parisair.com have various Seneca models and a PA31 Chieftain (grown up Navajo) at the Vero Beach facility if you want to fly over the coastline and Atlantic Ocean (absolutely gorgeous views on a nice sunny day).
JUst thought: Seneca 1 available (dual only) at www.sunstateaviation.com in Kissimmee - e.mail Mike Camelin [email protected] ($330 an hour dual).
