Well, if you are going to dream...might as well dream big.

I owned a Cessna 172 for a number of years, older K model, and always dreamed of just owning a multi-engine prop job...but could really never justify the expense or upkeep. Still it served me well and ran the older 87 octane fuels just fine.

But a business jet? Heck, I couldn't even afford to fill it up these days...

It's okay to dream - as long as you don't drool on the pillow.

BTW Stingraze, in your link above, the Falcon 20 costs about $4,500 an hour to operate...

You could save some real money by just getting the Falcon 10 which is barely $3000 an hour costs...

Compare that with a modern day Cessna 172 that is only $130 an hour and you see why I never upgraded. Plus I kept mine at the Aero Club on the base, so I got my AVGas at reduced rates and didn't have to pay tiedown/docking fees.

BTW Stingraze, you plan on piloting the aircraft yourself? Or are you going to higher a pilot for the job?
