RJBrown Posted June 16, 2010 Report Posted June 16, 2010 My last airplane was N231NH. I bought it in 1994 and I flew it as a 231 for over a year. When it had engine problems I had it converted to a Rocket. After over 800 hour as a Rocket I sold it in 2003. A year ago I went through the search to find the perfect plane to keep throughout my retirement. I looked at 231's TLS's and Rockets but bought a clean low time 1990MSE. She is a great plane, well equipped, fast and economical. With speeds of 155-160 knots on 9 gph, what more did I need? When I fly down to Texas or east to visit family I love it. But every time I head west I miss the Rocket. The ability to look down on the rocks from the 20s sure felt nice. Hey Steve want to trade me back my plane? Any one interested in helping me get back into a Rocket? Unless there is someone who wants a trade I will most likely need to sell and buy all over again. Thats not something I look forward to. I thought about the M20 Turbo but for $40,000 it just does not make sense. Quote
