Have spent far too many hours in the PA31 of various variants. Scarey thing is after 18 years I'm still current on type. Only one that was decent to fly was the T1040 and even that really needed tip tanks if you wanted to go any where.

On the plus side the Navajo / Chieftain was a stable IFR platform and if you could start a warm engine then you were certainly qualified to fly it

I'd whinded the window down, looks like the Navajo may have to deal with a Phantom this Xmas

What are the odds on it having "steam gauges"?

And I see the sister company released a single the Saratoga , notice they mention the use of Nav/GPS unit s.... then at the bottom off the page , "these units sold separately", so you want to be careful sometime as well ... almost sounds like something from the Martel toy company TV advert
