Hehe... I know better than that ;-) To tell of another plane on a DA40 forum, even though everyone is very polite here, is to raise a ruckus. Of course nothing could be worse then going over to the Bonanza forums and telling THEM you are picking a different plane. My goodness, they are like a swarm of bees over there. Apparently a Bonanza can climb higher, and faster, and better, and more comfortably, with more people in it, with more fuel, etc. etc. all for the same price or less (minus the outrageous annual's every year, or the fact that the insurance company wanted me to have 25 hrs of dual instruction first by someone that has 150hrs in type with 750hrs total, and the insurance price would have been 3 times as much as insuring a DA40 or my new plane!) And honestly, can they stop calling it a "Bo"? That sounds so retarded. I want to punch anyone in the face that comes up and says "have you considered a Bo?"
DA40... I will be back for you some day, it just wasn't in my cards for this year.
