He is good, I don't think saratogas hit the ground as hard as a crappy v tail.

Username Protected wrote: Actually your "filling plant" appears to be misinformed and has bought into the OWT that medical oxygen has moisture in it. First of all, moisture would cause the exact same problem for medical use as for aviation use in that it could freeze in the regulator due to adiabatic cooling. Where this nonsense comes from is that for medical use, O2 from the tank is often run through a container of water to add moisture before delivering it to patients.
Second, these days pretty much all oxygen "filling plants" get their gas from the same source and store it in the same tanks regardless of the intended use whether it be medical, aviation, or welding.
IOW the only difference between medical O2 and welding O2 is that the former requires a prescription. And the only difference between ABO and welding O2 is a sticker that says Aviation Breathing Oxygen that sometimes gets applied to the receiving tank. That certainly makes sense considering the specs for welding oxygen are higher than breathing oxygen. Thanks again for the correction!

I Just thought I would throw out an update for all you folks that thought a Saratoga was to much airplane. Today I am over 500 hour pilot. (In 3.5 years) Back in December I bought a 2005 Malibu Mirage and have almost 80 hours in it. I feel very comfortable in the Mirage already and also the Saratoga (which I have for sale, if anyone interested 701-400-7067) I do understand where some of you were coming from in prior posts telling me about IFR flying and getting to much airplane. However. I still stand by my very high go/no go limitations and I believe if you can put your heart into learning and spend a good amount of time flying, very periodically, a guy can fly anything he wants to!!! I have learned so much in the last three years and will continue to learn. Aviation has opened up so many doors in my business, without it I would not be able to do what I do. I am blessed to be able to do this. I just LOVE TO FLY!!! On a side note I have never owned a Beech product but I can tell you I am EXTREMELY happy with my choice of the Saratoga 2TC and now the Mirage. I am already planning a little upgrade to bolt on the front of the Mirage soon!!!
