    I think it would be hard to break this particular part, there’s not much to it. Thanks for your help, please keep me informed as I'm looking at all options to get this bird flying again.

    All Good Things

    Carl, Thanks for all of your help personally and with the Commander community. Is there any chance that maybe Jim Richards or CAC could buy the rights to produce some of your popular STCs going forward?

    Should the Commander be an Option?

    Peter, At my renewal in May for my 114, the premium was $1,960 for a hull value of $110k with $1M liability coverage. I am instrument rated, have no claims, and at the time had total time of just over 500 hrs, 230 hrs in retractables with about 180 hrs in the Commander. Prices see saw up and...

    114hs 2.0

    I was originally hoping to put it off until next year since I already blew the budget this year on a new interior and Carl's hot shot mod, but it's only money, right? Whoever said that flying is cheap! Thanks Phil.

    Hi Kumar, In addition to finishing up your PPL, I would recommend that as soon as you can, get that instrument rating. Besides helping your insurance premiums, it will make you a safer, better, and more precise pilot.

    New Member interested in acquiring a Commander

    Hi Steve, welcome to the group. You may want to reach out to Judi at Suncoast Aviation sales. She knows pretty well the history of almost every Commander ever made. Great resource for your search.

    New Member, Soon to be New Pilot

    I agree with the previous comments about defining your mission first and being honest about your current state of training before shopping for an airplane. A 172 or a Cherokee is a very different animal than a high performance, complex aircraft like the Commander for a new pilot. I know of new...

    So happy to be a Commander owner!!

    Welcome to the Commander family. You’ll love your 114, these classic birds become a labor of love. I feel like the Commander is one of the best kept secrets of the airplane community.
