Partnership for new DA-40 NG in Norwood (KOWD)

Post by mbitran »

Hi all,

I'm receiving a new DA-40 NG in December and looking to potentially setup a partnership or to lease out blocks of hours. Please let me know if you have interest. The plane will be hangared.

In case it's of interest --- I've done a ton of research on the NG pros/cons vs. the gas XLT version. Happy to share my notes/findings.

Best,

Marco

I would love to see your NG vs XLT comparison. Many things to like about the NG but the operating costs over time are more than the XLT. The cheaper JetA doesn’t compensate for that. I came to a different conclusion but like to hear other’s thoughts.
