Looking for 337 plane ride

likes2fly · #1 10-22-17, 11:28 AM

My wife and I have settled on getting a Cessna 337 in a year and half after we sell some property. I have a friend that is a I.A. and he has flown them. I'm a pilot and A&P. I have not flown in a 337 but feel that it would fit our needs. We live in Pensacola, Florida and would love to pay the fuel and dinner for a flight in a 337. If someone within a couple hundred miles would fly us around for an hour that would be awesome. We have family in Orlando so in Orlando area would be great too. I'm leaning toward pressurized.

I'm in a suburb of Toronto, Canada. Come on up and I'll happily take you around the patch.

Most of those views come from search robots, not people.

thanks red air. You guys are getting closer. I do have family in Jonesboro, AR. so in the northeast Arkansas and Memphis Tennessee area would work too.

My C337D is based in Ft Pierce KFPR. I'd be glad to give you a ride if we can coordinate schedules.

That is tempting Jerry but the 1000 miles and cold weather is the only thing stopping. lol

When you're in Orlando you might contact the guys over at Titusville airport, @ Airscan. Their facility is very secure but they would probably take you on a ride they have some very nice airplanes, when you contact them tell them your an A&P
They probably won't take you one of these secure surveillance
aircraft but they have others around there

Thanks general, I will contact them and hopefully they will be open to taking us for a ride. I'm not sure exactly how to ask them but I will.
