Made my day....
7 years ago I picked up a MX7-180a with 35 hours:
fixed pitch prop
old style gear
no frills, just the basics
pair of DCs thrown in
.....for about 1/3rd the price - $59k

Added $12k of electronics and stuff for some real IFR capability
....and then hand flew 1000hours worth of slow speed, easy, low
maintenance travel in my paint chipped little baby. Sweet

Two questions pop into mind -
How much faster does the constant speed 180 go than the fixed pitch? I
get 114 knots at 2500rpms at 4,000'

Is the book price that my local tax authority quotes ($82k) real?

Hell, it's less than the tax. And I can assure you my S-Tec 50 flies
better than my 1040!

Although soaring is great, I'm not stopping my fun to tow planes into
the air! I'll leave that to the Pawnees of the world.

Yes, but you could put the thing to work making its own payments. I have
spent many hours contemplating the tail feathers of a Maule from 200 feet back.
In general, I would much prefer to be following a Pawnee, but they tend to be
single-purpose machines.
