I would like to install this on my Bonanza.
3 days ago, As I turned short final, after making a lot of calls along the way, and doing a proper tear drop entry, some Dude pulls in front of 2 planes that were holding short, and start taking off... I was about 150' away. Perfect distance for shooting him down.
Really p..ed me off.
Then said, "Oh.. I did not see you... "

I suppose this isn't a first at least. South American countries use Super Tucanos as economical warplanes today. They may not have mach capability, but they also don't have as big a problem with loiter time or operating cost.

My newphew was an Apache Pilot in Iraq and previously spent some time in Afghanistan, he wasn’t very impressed with the average Afghani’s apptitude... the Caravan is a simple airplane, sounds like a good fit.
