Hi Everyone,
My name is Vladimir Petrovic. I am currently flying PA28 out of my flight school, but as I travel a lot for business, and have 3 kids, a wife and St Bernard (who all by the way love to travel), am considering to purchase anything from within a 58 family.
I heard a lot of talk about 58p, 58TC etc... hence I decided to join this forum to hear from "horses mouth".
As with all of you, the family is very important and I wanna make sure I make an educated decision.
If you can point me in a direction of gathering more information about 58s, I would be more than grateful to all of you.
My best
Vlad
Vlad,
Do a search here... you'll find a ton of info. They get the Baron book from the ABS store... good info.
Then figure out your mission, budget and what kind of flying you want to do and post it here, and you'll get more info.
It may be premature to just post a bunch of specs at this time, but if you have specific questions, fire away.
However, in a nutshell:
The 58's advantage is easier maintenance, lighter and the double club doors.
The 58P is the above pressurized, ac, costs more to operate (but not necessarily to purchase), goes faster and flies higher. Also takes more runway. Also, has a 10,000 life.
The 58TC is the above P engines, with the 58 airframe. Best performer, club doors. But no pressure.
