re 336
Bob
There are people who like them and there are the others. If you get one that has been well maintained you are ahead of the game.
As for the 336 your speed is less. your operating cost (annuals etc) are less and the insurance is definately less.
It is still very ecenomical to operate but you will fighting to get "book" airspeed. They /cessna/ decided it didn't outperform any of the existing singles except for the spare engine <G>
There is some history on the web and also at the riley skymaster sight.
I am in Larry's camp. I fly a lot at night and a lot of over the water. You won't catch me in a single even if it is a tbm700 or a pc12 pilatus. One engine is one engine. lose an engine and the 336/7 will take you to the airport.
good luck finding a good ship.
