After a lot of hummm-ing and haaa-ing, hair splitting, pestering Peter and Mooney Driver with questions I have finally committed… without further ado introducing Godot II:

This one indeed. The general condition of the hangar is indicative of the general state of GA in Switzerland…

What a beauty! I wish you two many safe flying hours and landings :)
I assume the preowned GA market in Switzerland is not too big? Did you look for suitable candidates only in Switzerland or also abroad?

I looked across Europe and the US. THere are good deals to be had in the US but by the time you have them flown over, imported (and possibly re-registered which is a hassle) they aren’t that good any longer.

Preowned GA here is quite small and finding this one was quite a stroke of luck. There are one or two gripes but nothing I can’t live with (sofar…).
