Our flying club's insurance company is reluctantly allowing us to insure
our Lance, but they have said that they don't like 6 seaters in clubs. A
year ago they told us that anybody who flew the Lance had to put at least
3 hours in the previous 90 days or do a "proficiency check" with a club
instructor every time they flew it, then they told us that's not enough,
and you have to do 15 hours a year in it and ground training and they need
a list of all the pilots and you could only have 8 pilots on the list.
We're wondering what they're going to do next year. So we're thinking
about what happens when we can't keep it any more.
More than the 6 seats, what I like best about the Lance is that it's
roomier side-to-side than an Archer or Dakota. Are there any four seaters
out there that are as wide as a Lance that don't cost too much?

elixer of life down the front of their tasteless shirts. -- Wayne Pascoe
