Just got new avionics and doing that takes a lot of failure points away. Other than that its like a Baron or P baron. Just like any airplane, be an involved owner and you can avoid a lot of maintenance issues.

Lol I’m not sure I’ve done that but I did buy and bind all the maintenance manuals which has weirdly come in handy. For things you wouldn’t even imagine, the manuals have come in handy. Door rigging has been one of them.

Usually around 19GPH/side. Granted I have the Ram VII’s. Many of my twin Cessna friends fly LOP and my plane flies great LOP. I’ve just been too lazy to take the time to perfect it. Set them up right and these things will go for 6 hours wit reserves!!
