November 2005- Our charter company operated a 1970 model PA-31-310 Navajo for several years. We purchased it out in California, took the insurance-required flight training and flew it home to Florida, making a stop in Vegas for the night, and another at the Grand Canyon, just to sightsee.

After the 15-hour ride home we thought we knew her pretty well. Six months later we had put about 75 hours on the old girl and had grown to know her even better.
