I think it looks very nice, but it's hard to tell by the pics.

Just a suggestion, it would be better if the pics were taken outside with lots of light.

But, it looks like a very nice low time 55.

Matt,

I will pass your thoughts along to Carlo.

Thanks,

Mike

First, that is a gorgeous plane!
Second, it never hurts to have more BT Fam!

Mike - would it make sense to have the Baron ferried back to the USA in order to sell it? If I was a prospective purchaser the time and expense of dealing with a plane in Italy would make me shy away unless the plane was priced so low that I would buy it sight unseen. This looks like a very nice B55 that just needs a temporary hangar at your home drome.

Sven,

I believe you are correct.

The number of potential EU purchasers is likely much smaller than the number of US purchasers.

I’ll suggest this to Carlo, in fact he was already giving this some thought.

Mike

UPDATE!

This plane is now stateside, having been flown across the Atlantic from Scotland.

I'll know soon where the owner plans to locate it here in the US, currently it is in Pottstown, PA.

Mike

Hats off to the ferry pilot who hand-flew it across the pond!

The owner, Carlo flew it. I don’t know who his co-pilot was.

Mike

Update: N81AB is now located at KPTW Pottstown, PA
