Hi All
Thanks to each of you who have guided my selection process. I started looking for a cherokee 6, until I noticed I could have a much nicer baron for far less money, and like it far better. Only two landings so far, both squeakers, which I think says more about how nice it is to fly than my abilities.

That paint scheme looks familiar. I think it's identical to the one on my B55 except that his doesn't have chipped paint on the front of the nacelles.

Good looking plane Ron - nice to see the real deal.

By the way, my friend is building a Kit Fox - it's a fascinating process and a very nice airplane.

oddly enough, I found the baron to fly more like the kitfox than the heavy piper's I was considering.
