Hank Posted April 23, 2011 Report Posted April 23, 2011 When I bought 50% of my C, I had 62 Cessna hours in my logbook, with no ratings or endorsements of any kind other than my still-damp Temporary PPL certificate. Insurance required 15 hrs with my CFII partner, including 5 hours IMC. The first year I put in 100 hours, and 2nd year insurance was much more reasonable. Several companies refused to write insurance for me, even as an owner. Work with a good broker and find the best deal. Quote
FLYFST Posted April 24, 2011 Author Report Posted April 24, 2011 Well folks, after four months of looking at a lot of of airplanes I found a really great one. I am now the proud owner of N401RK, a 1990 M20J-201 that looks great and flies even better. Yesterday I got the first 3.5 of my 8 hours dual and IPC required by my insurance company, and I cannot wait to get it all done. By the way, the professionals at Northern Air and Mayday Avionics in Grand Rapids, MI (KGRR) did a great job taking the airplane through a thorough annual and getting her in tip top shape. Quote
