Thinking of buying one of these

If we worried about such things, powered flight would never have been invented.

Life is always a balance between risk and reward.

However, I need to do further research as there are legislated restrictions on single engined planes flying across large expanses of water.

it always more prudent to have twin engines when flying long distance over water.

Yes indeed, can't argue with that.

Have parachute ma.

 

[Papsmearer]

Why not look at planes with 2 engines? It might be more $$$ but is safer in case one of the engines develops problems.

Aiyah, Sam the Sheep Fucker donch have multi engine rating lah. That's obvious to me. that's why he has to look for single engine planes.

 

[sadshishamo]

After spending so much he will have no more cash for a parachute....just a pink umbrella maybe.

best is flying boats.

Quest Kodiak seem ok, a modern plane certified with float. not sure can use for sea condition. USD 1.7m.

Get it! Pilatus has the best flight performance characteristics in all of the RC models I have flown. It simply just loves to climb.

With the faster speed and higher ceiling you can reach OZ land in no time. Furthermore with a higher ceiling of a commercial airliner you plenty of time to gently glide down across the sea to reach OZ just in case the engine fails. Otherwise you can swim with the sharks infested waters.

Generally, German speaking country made products have better quality than American shits.

Have you got your pilot's license yet?
Or are you looking to hire a pilot?

About NZD2.5 million.

Maintenance will be $10,000 to $15,000 for every 100 hours of flight.

A new engine costs $120,000.

I'm halfway there. Solo flight after Xmas.

I plan to hire a pilot. I'm learning to fly because I want to tick that off my bucket list. I don't really have any passion for flying. I find it rather boring and stressful. I am not a systematic person but when it comes to flying, you have to be extremely disciplined. You cannot do things on a whim. Everything has to be planned well ahead.

 

[jw5]

FYI, there is at least one qualified pilot in your forum.

If he is interested to be hired by you, he will PM you.

Somehow, I don't think he will be.

I will hire an Ang Moh pilot. Ang Mohs are the best.

Look at cockeyed Sam I don't think he can walk a straight line so how to do other more complex stuff? He will probably try to hire a pilot and pay the guy in points after persuading him to join the forum.

My kaki called to tell me that Samy Leong can ride a seatless bicycle with training wheels.

You are the typical SPG. Only want Ang Mo in your cockpit.

Does anyone have any experience in using one of these for regular commutes? Please PM me if you do.

In Singapore? CAAS makes air worthiness checks prohibitively costly
