Did you read my "LA to Atlanta" thread?

Did you look at the thread or not? 1700NM and I barely had a tail wind. Name the single pilot planes that can do that with a load of people.
The math is in the thread.

Here are the top 10 GA planes flying right now. I think the owner flown segment is bigger than all others:
42 C172 Cessna Skyhawk
40 C208 Cessna Caravan
38 B190 Beechcraft 1900
38 PC12 Pilatus PC-12
32 BE20 Beechcraft Super King Air 200
25 C56X Cessna Citation Excel
22 C750 Cessna Citation X
22 PA31 Piper Navajo
22 SR22 Cirrus SR-22
Out of curiosity, were those 1900s Great Lakes' 1900 fleet, they do a 121/135 mix on the lower density routes.
