Gf
My post was a little tongue in cheek about the resurrection of a 12 year old thread...
We traded our 10 in seven years ago to WestStar. They are still operating it. It’s a really nice one. But I don’t ever want to fly it again. They are cool for about 1.5 hours, then they get small pretty quickly. We used to take ours Coast to Coast on day trips. Not fun.
Also, someplace like weststar is the perfect owner of them now. The DOCs became unbelievable. For a while around 2010 there were several parts that were unavailable until someone decided to part out an airframe. Slats were one such item. I’m told we have lower DOCs on our 2000LX now than we had on our 10 when we sold it.
