Joe Zuffoletto Posted September 4, 2014 Report Posted September 4, 2014 This small expo is making its way around the region; I attended the first installment yesterday at my home field. It's at KSLC today. http://rockymountainaircraftexpo.com/default.htm Not a big expo, but some nice hardware. Every model of Cirrus was there, along with the Cessna TTx, but sadly no Mooney. I was tempted to don my Mooney Ambassadors shirt and taxi my Acclaim over there to be an expo imposter. The Eclipse 550 was there, and it's a huge improvement over the 500. Cessna's M2 is a real beauty. The Expo ads said TBM would be there, but sadly there was no TBM 900 to be found. But I toured a King Air 350i and it was nothing short of glorious! Quote
carqwik Posted September 4, 2014 Report Posted September 4, 2014 The cockpit in the Mustang is more comfortable than the M2....at least for me (5'10" 210 lbs). But the G3000 system is way better than the G1000... The M2 is a great deal given its speed, range, and payload although IIRC, if you fly it single pilot and no pax, you have to add something like 140 lbs of weight into the nose baggage to be within CG. Then again, since I don't have $4MM to spare, guess it doesn't matter.... Quote
