I've had two of them, never had anything serious go wrong with either. One was a MIller 200 hp conversion (fast) the other a "late model" with the CR props, radar, nice plane. (8869Y, just a few SN off from another poster).


Wish I hadn't sold it.
Those little engines are solid.

Andrew - did you get what you were looking for?

I went through this very same process late last year and in the course of doing so learned a lot.

The one suggestion I would make if you’re still interested is to post your location and connect with a couple of PA-30 owners. Getting walked around a real plane and flying in one is a very valuable supplement to inventorying the ADs, etc.

Also, the other thing to note is that there are a number of significant STC mods to Twin Comanches that make many of them horses of a different color. So each one needs to be evaluated in the context of whether it has the Miller engine mod, Robertson STOL, factory turbos, factory oxygen, Miller nose, counter rotated engines, etc.

Feel free to pm me if you want to follow up

Good luck

Tim
