Lot's more expense then we want to do just to get long range wings...................
Bill, why not just swap the wings?
Then re-sell it.
Here is my rationalization. First, too far away. Second, too many unknown expenses involved. Especially in today's soft market. If it could have been a simple matter of switching engines, the plane would have been ours by now. Besides, in nearly 5 years of ownership. We have yet to have a real need for long range tanks. Three to three and a half hour range outlasts our comfort level already.
And as pretty as that airplane is, I really would hate to disassemble it and put it back together mismatched.
And, we flew with our group to lunch today. What a sweet flying airplane we already have..................
