Why not think about fractional ownership.. You'll get all the tech
stuff without the upfront costs. Check out OURPLANE they have a range
of choices (182, cirrus etc etc..)

Just a thought but I know I would lean that way if I was thinking of
flying a new bird...

Good luck


I've looked very seriously at a new OurPlane SR22.
In talking to others I've come to the conclusion that 8 people sharing one plane is about 4 too many.

There is a brand new SR22 comming to CRQ any day now.
The only nearby OurPlane is a SR22 at MYF, when I asked the representative
if I could look at the schedule for the MYF SR22 he got very evasive and said things like "that
particular SR22 is used more than any other in the fleet", "its very busy", "its not represenative"
etc.. etc..
I've also talked to several pilots that were OurPlane or Airshares users in other areas
and only about 50% said they would do it again, and the biggest complaint was scheduling.
