Rick, I agree but none have Pilatus on them.  Pilatus has a history of delivering results. I wouldn't bet against them. Jason, My prediction is by 2020, there will be lots of Phenom 300s you can pick up cheap.

Yep a Kodiak or a Caravan. Those airplanes make the worst pilots look good.
I'm still contemplating my next mission. A Twin Biz Jet is not in the picture for me but a PC-12 maybe. I've lusted after one for many years. But I only need one for about six trips a year.
I'm going to spend some time in CR with Larry. I need to get my mind right.
