Good afternoon,

Is there anyone on the boards in the DFW area with a C310R?

I don't, but if you were to post in the North Texas Aviators Facebook group, someone there will know.

Jay,

I really appreciate the recommendation. That’s a fantastic idea, but I don’t have any social media accounts so slightly rules me out. My primary reason for trying to locate one of these aircraft is so that my wife can take a look at one and get inside of it to see if it’s something that would be suitable for us in the future.. of course, steak dinner and scotch included for the owner of the airplane. Again, thanks for taking the time to recommend this.

While I can't help I'm also interested in this aircraft down the road. I heard the cabin in more spacious than the baron. Would people who have flown in both consider it major upgrade to cabin space and comfort? How about compared to the seneca/Saratoga cabin?

If you’re going to Oshkosh, you might try to ask at the twin Cessna forum. Should be plenty of 310s owners there with their plane.

It’s a suburban versus a mini cooper.

I’m a big guy. 255lbs. I took a buddy flying. He’s 6’6” and 350. Our shoulders didn’t even touch.

The middle row in my 310R has basically lay flat seats.

That utility does come with a caveat - while the wingspan of a C310R fits in most t-hangars, the overall length of the aircraft might not.

The depth of the hangar wing wall needs to be at least 18' from the back of the 'T' to the door - that is usually the limiting factor.
