Beechcraft Baron58
Posted: Wed Jan 14, 2009 8:42 amOk, so I finally capped 25 hours (SEP) sim time and made enough funds available to buy a Baron58.
I am also a C3 Commercial Pilot, but restricted to non-turbo planes with a empty weight of 2500kg.
I would have wanted to bought a new Baron but one would cost $900k, I then spotted a bargain buy. A baron with 4800 hours and a shady service record for $500k.
Well bought it, and took my first FsPx for a spin in this bird. From Hobart to Launy.
Upon approach I wanted to extend the gear followed by a warning from my co-pilot. GEAR STUCK.
I made a belly landing, got good ratings but the damage is $220k and the insurance only pays 66%.
I will now have to use my Cessna 182 till I have enough funds available to cover the difference.
Then SELL this JUNK
