Aircraft wish list-

[dazza 38]

Hi all i wanted to start a thread on what a/c people would buy, "if you won Lotto, or fell over a bag full of money", so money isnt a problem. I was thinking 3 diffferent uses. A- Training A/c B-Personel Fun A/c. C- a people mover. Planes have to be single engine, RAA and or GA.

 

My choice would be

 

A- Brumby or Sportstar

 

B-Cubcrafters cub S2

 

C- TC 320 Airvan

 

 

[rgmwa]

Plenty of good choices but for what it's worth:

 

A. RV12

 

B- RV8 or Tiger Moth

 

C- RV10 (does only 4 seats count as a people mover?. If not, then the TC320 looks good)

 

rgmwa

Thanks Guys.There are so many choices out there, even if money wasnt a problem.It would be very difficult to choose.I think

 

 

[Spin]

A: One of the Tecnams - nice honest RA trainer

 

B: RV8 - enough to brighten my day:big_grin:

 

C: C208 - was going to say C206, but what the hell, you did say lotto. Enough space for family and a few toys, quick enough, but still rugged enough to get into most places I would like to go. I'm not rated but have enough unofficial time in them to know that they are an achievable option for a PPL.

Choice of (3) all single engine. Cost no barrier.

 

Trainer Whitney boomerang.

 

Fun Boeing Stearman.

 

People mover Cessna Caravan.

 

Not that exciting. Perhaps a Sukhoi (the aerobatic one),instead of the Stearman, but I do like Bipe's with a big round engine. Nev

 

 

[johndl]

I wouldn't mind a spitfire actually!

 

 

[dazza 38]

You have got me there Nev, the Boomerang would be a excellent trainer, with a projected 22 000 hour airframe life, and australian built as well.

If you're going to dream, raise the bar!!

[dunlopdangler]

we've done this one already a while back...but what the hell...if I fell over a bag of money and the missus did'nt notice me pick it up...Beech 18 or the lockheed equivalent:big_grin:

 

and yes Baph, that viper would be nice as well

 

 

[stanzahero]

mmmm....

 

trainer : J120 (man of simple tastes...)

 

fun : CA 13 Boomerang (I'd live with a Hawker Fury here)

 

people mover : SupermarineWalrus (I like the outside loop idea)

 

 

[pilotdave69]

Columbia

 

I know im a dreamer, i love the Columbia 400

 

Cessna/Columbia/Lancair 350/400 for sale - 2006 COLUMBIA 400SL for sale on AircraftDealer.com

 

Need lotto win first.. unless dreams come true.

 

 

 

[Guest Howard Hughes]

WIsh list

 

1) Sting RG (trainer)

 

2) Xenon gyro (fun machine)

 

3) I agree with Baph, Viperjet wins hands down! (people mover, move them real fast)

 

 

[dazza 38]

Can i change my choice of people mover to the Viper Jet.The passengers left over can take a Airline.LOL

 

 

[Thalass]

Trainer: Rans S7

 

Fun: Fokker B.II flying boat (Or, at least, a two seat RAA sized version :P) image

 

People Mover: Space Ship Three (or Four, or whatever version achieves orbit). Move people anywhere in the world, really really fast!

 

 

[Guest burbles1]

For me it's:

 

trainer - Foxbat A22 LSA

 

personal/fun -Pipistrel Virus

 

people mover - Australian Lightwing Speed (but if it was GA, it'd be a GA8 Airvan. Saw one at Wedderburn - verry naarrs)

 

 

[Powerin]

Hmmm...being a bushy I need a bush plane, then an aerobatic plane would be nice and of course a comfortable people mover is a must for family and friends.

 

So I believe the Pilatus range would do nicely:

 

Bush/fun: PC-6

 

Aero/trainer: PC-9

 

Mover: PC-12

 

 

 

[Super King Air]

Super Kingair hehe ;)

 

 

[Tomo]

Only three?!!? :ah_oh:

 

Trainer/utter fun: Drifter!!

 

A bit more fun: Pitts S1S or something

 

Transporter: PC12 or Caravan.

 

 

[Guest Walter Buschor]

This would be a tough one.

 

trainer: Buecker Jungmeister

 

fun : Me 109 G with guns loaded ( to clear the runway from Roo's etc )

 

transport : Caribou - go anywhere!

 

 

[Spin]

Surprised you didn't nominate the Savvanah for "trainer", Walter. Reckon I'm going to change my original vote, love the Tecnams, but if I had a Savvy trainer, I could also use it for buzzing around the back paddock, not to mention dropping to some of the more challenging strips, keep the RV for longer jaunts where the speed is an attraction.

 

 

[Ultralights]

Trainer, Savannah

 

Fun, P38 Lightning

 

Transport, Cessna Mustang and Dash 7

 

 

[Guest Walter Buschor]

Hi Spin,

 

Savannah for trainer, I don't think so. With money no object I want better than that. -

 

Remember that you can always backtrade to the Savvy should you want to and use the profit for a nice trip around the world .

 

- I hope that no Savvy owner has taken this the wrong way! -
