What should I look for when shopping for a plane?
I want speed and a large useful load (like everyone.) This is obviously a first purchase. My maximum budget is around 60 or 70K. I prefer a low wing to a high wing. Any suggestions on a make or model in this price range would be helpful.
Also, I don’t know about overhaul time, ie, a good amount of time since an overhaul. What is the average amount of hours a plane can fly without being overhauled? How many hours will an airplane last (airframe and total time?)
Any other tips on what I should look for when shopping would be very helpful too.
I know I’m pressing my luck asking another question but here it goes. I hold a PPL with about 120hrs. Are there certain restrictions on the type of aircraft I can fly such as high performace, complex? If so, what do I need to do to be able to fly one. Do I just need a checkout?
Thanks in advance for everyone’s help.
