Hi everyone,
I'm trying to gather information about the three types I listed in the title of this thread. I figure if anybody knows about these planes, you guys do.
My Maule is too expensive, insurance is high, and the thing burns 14gph. I can't get STC'd extended gear, and if I ding the prop it's 2 grand for an overhaul or ten grand for a new one. What I want is a simple, side by side bushplane with performance approaching that of a Super Cub. I'd just buy a Super Cub, but I need side by side, and don't want to spend $80,000. I can build, or restore if necessary.
Which of the three(14, 2+2, or Bushmaster.) do you guys think is the most bang for the buck.
