Welcome, Mike. Yeah, the crowd is pretty insistent on pics. We also like reports about the first trip home.  On the other hand, you'll find a great wealth of knowledge and folks willing to share it. Best of luck with the pre-buy.

I live in Temperance, Michigan and I will keep her at Suburban Airport, or possibly Adrian, not sure which one right now.
Going to have the folks in Wichita do the annual (up in May) and possibly add a dual yolk before I go get her. I plan to get my IFR with her and although I am hearing how sweet the single yolk is, I am thinking a dual yolk will serve me better in the long run. Any thoughts before I spend the extra 3 grand?
I am so pumped about all of this, I can't sit still or sleep.
Mike I suggest you rent a dual yoke for your checkout and fly with it for a bit before deciding to buy one. If I had a Bonanza I'd stay with a single yoke and if they ever get around to changing the rules to allow simulated instrument flight in a twin I'll get one for the Baron.
