Hi all,
I'm new here, but i'll go straight to the point that made me register
In the near future, i'm going to become part of a business that requires me to travel a lot in some countries in Africa, specially Mozambique.
Due to the nature of many of those places and huge distances to travel, and since my work is mostly field investigation, travelling by car is very uncomfortable and time consuming.
So, with that in mind, i'm going to buy a plane and take a pilot's license!
Thing is, although i'll have experienced people that can advice me and a team that travels with me, i must plan in advance and buy a plane soon, even without knowing anything about flying (well, apart from some flight sim on my PC).
Hoping that there is people in this forum that has a good knowledge about aircraft, i'm here to listen to opinions on what to buy.
The aircraft i need must meet the following requirements:
- 5 seats (ish) and some cargo space for luggage
- must be able to take off / land in small strips, possibly with rough terrain
- pilot friendly (i'll be a flying noob, not a top gun...)
- reliable (i won't have a spare parts shop nearby most of the time)
Other than that, all suggestions welcome.
Thanks in advance,
Joćo
