Anyone want to guess how many Aerostar lurkers we have?


I frequent the Aerostar owner's association board, (but don't contribute as much there...), and I notice that there are quite a few of the names I see there, that I also see here...and I know there are several of you(us) that own Aerostars....Glenn Chong, Fred Eisert, Tom Bush, Tim Spears, (and I think I've seen others...)


Come on now, fess up, guys....



(I even see BT referred to as "original source material" on the AOA board from time to time...



(maybe we could get our own sub-forum going here....)



:coffee:

I am an Aerostar owner. Used to have a colemill b55 and bought Aerostar. Sold Colemill
Joined beechtalk when I had baron.

I sometimes post here but mostly just read other posts. It has been an informative website for me.

Hi.
My name is George.
I am a former Aerostar owner.
Boy how I miss flying that airplane :sad:

BT connection: I also used to fly a 58 Baron.

Did I mention I miss flying that Aerostar.

Hi...my name is Fred. And I have a problem.....I own an Aerostar......
Isn't that how they start the AA meetings?
I had been looking for a twin for several years, then there was a requirements creep. At the time I was looking to upgrade, I was in a program management position which required a fair amount of travel. Started looking at turbo twin commanches with extended range tanks, never found one in the time period I was looking. After many iterations from the 55 to 58P, Duke, 340, 421.....I settled on the Aerostar. Of course, just a couple of months after I took delivery of the Aerostar, I changed positions with significantly less travel. A good thing, as I would have lost money on every trip!

This forum has some good information out there.

Isn't this like asking if you would stop and look at Kate Upton if she walked by? I mean, are you serious? :D

I'm an AOA lurker! Well, at least I lurk there sometimes.

(also lurk at the Twin Cessna Flyers, Duke Owners and National Waco Club) Nowhere that I have found has the wealth of information, often even on aircraft other than Beech, that we have right here.
