@@krystalviewaviation3245 Yes..I had a turbo 210N up to a few months ago and sold it to a good friend. Now, I am looking for an older 500B Commander. I had one back in the 1970's...N9135N...and after I sold it, I then realized that I shouldnt have sold it. I flew for Braniff in the early 1070's for 2 years and hated it. Quit that and went corporate with a friend in East Texas when he was starting his company flying a Cessna 182. Six months later we sold the 182 and got a 401. About a year after that, we got a 403 and kept it for almost 10 years. Sold it and got a c90 King Air but didnt keep it long. Traded it for a 690B Commander, before finally going to a Citation. I retired in 2010 after 32 years with the company, but I still fly today. I will find a 500B commander somewhere that is in good shape and most likely buy it. The guy I sold my old Commander to sold it to someone in Minnesota and I have been talking to them about buying it back, but the guy is asking way to much money for it. I have several type ratings, but havent stayed current with them.
@@krystalviewaviation3245 yes...77 years old with 15,000+ hours and still fly and pass my physicals. I am in a pilot pool in Fort Worth, Texas and fly turbine Commanders, Citations, and a few pistons on a part time thing to stay current and have fun.
This is me flying the 402B, never knew I had someone taking vids
What else do you fly ?
@@ndirangugichuki6260used to fly the Atr72/42
But fly the Aztec, C402 & C404
Very nice catch!
Thanks bro
Got several hundred hours in a 402. Easy and very forgiving plane, but not very fast.
@Motorsbyshooter that is wonderful to hear are you still a pilot and what type of aircraft you fly now.

Oh wow that is great to hear that you still fly keep up the wonderful work you are doing in getting passengers to and from there destination.
No need for taxi and takeoff lights 😂😂😂.
Well my taxi lights are on but go up when the gears go up
My landing lights create drag so I keep them up during the day
