What should I look for when shopping for a plane?
Q. I want speed and a large useful load (like everyone.) This is obviously a first purchase. My maximum budget is around 60 or 70K. I prefer a low wing to a high wing. Any suggestions on a make or model in this price range would be helpful. Also, I don't know about overhaul time, ie, a good amount of time since an overhaul. What is the average amount of hours a plane can fly without being overhauled? How many hours will an airplane last (airframe and total time?) Any other tips on what I should look for when shopping would be very helpful too. I know I'm pressing my luck asking another question but here it goes. I hold a PPL with about 120hrs.

They have the same o-360 as a cessna 172, but it has a much more aerodynamic wing, and a kickass tail that has a strait leading edge and sloped trailing edge. They have manual gear and flaps, but nobody even cares because they work really well and save 400lbs. Youll need to get your advanced rating, but its worth it for the extra speed. Oh, and the mooney can carry 4 180lb people 1000 miles and stay within weight and balance guidelines. The only downside is that mooneys float at landing much longer because of that aerodynamic wing, so you cant come in with any extra speed or you risk… [cont.]
