That's hilarious...I'll have to remember that. The flying public is so ridiculous sometimes. As I'm sitting here waiting for my flight, I heard a couple getting ready to hop on a Lynx Q400. Their comment as the plane was taxiing in..."Oh geez, look at this little old puddle-jumper we have to ride in". I could have pointed out the fact that it's the largest, newest airplane to fly in here...but they're not worth the effort.

Anyhow, the Brasilia is the only plane I've flown outside of GA, and I still love it. Don't have anything else to compare it to, but we see a lot of fun things that I assume the jets wouldn't be able to handle (short approaches from 11k' on downwind, 250 to the marker, those sorts of things). And as was mentioned earlier, the handlebars feel pretty natural after a month or two.
