It needs radios and it's getting a G600, GTN650, 430WAAS, GDL69, GDL88, and a few other odds and ends on Dec. 3rd at the facility in Aiken.

I rarely find something in better shape than it was represented. This airplane is immaculate. I lucked out.

Nice one Craig. Good luck with the Mits. I've always liked them a lot, but in the end I settled for a Turbo Commander.

I'm not sure the Commander is "settling", that's a fine airplane. Which one did you buy? Congrats Adam!

The aircraft is sitting at John Wayne Airport (KSNA) right now.

Very nice!
They look like mini airliners these things.
I hear Mitsubishi owners are ecstatic about the support from the factory.

These are really nice airplanes and yours is especially nice. I spent quite some time looking at them about 9-10 years ago. At the time the market had beat them down to the point the freighters were starting to notice. I was tempted again just a couple of years ago.

Looks great Craig. I have not seen a short MU2 with a bench seat. Will it hold 8? Was the paint done by Ranger?

Very nice.

Have you flown it? How does it fly compared to Aerostar? Who are you doing checkout and initial training with? How bad was insurance?

I think the Mits is something a lot of people think about and I would be interested in hearing about your experience transitioning to it from the Aerostar.

Thanks
