Re: Buy a starter plane or buy the ultimate plane?

Not much to add other than a prospective new buyer needs to know the the bigger/higher HP planes come with an additional, over all expense, that is generally quite higher than the small 2 seaters. Fuel burn, insurance, maintenance, and higher priced parts can put a new owner into a very deep hole....Very quickly. Have a decent money reserve comparable to the cost of the plane for all the little (or big) issues that come up.
