73 337g
I recently experienced an engine failure in my single engine aircraft. I was forced to make an emergency landing on a city street. My daughter and I came out great but my aircraft was totaled by a telephone pole. I have wanted to get my multi and have always wanted a 337. Now would seem to be my chance. It would seem the 337 would be safer, especially with an engine failure, but this isn't supported in the statistics... what gives? I am sure it is going to be hard to convince my wife and children (especially my daughter who got to experience silence at 2500ft with me) to get into another plane but I am trying to get them to believe the 337 would be much safer as it has two engines, no yaw spin, etc. Sooo... I have an opportunity to get into a partnership on a 1973 337G. ttaf is around 2500, 800 smoh f/r, getting new paint and new interior in the next month, getting new avionics to include a cnx80, sl30, sl70, stec 65, dual gs, and apollo audio panel. He is asking $45,000 for my interest. Does this seem like a reasonable amount? 337's don't seem to hold their value well but this seems like a good deal to me. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks, Dan
