Default RE: Taurus 52 for Midwest SuperStinker

Well... in my mind there is nothing wrong with a Brillelli 46 or even the 50. Both are lighter and less money.. make great power for something like this.

Taurus makes a great 52 no doubt... had one. However a lot more money and un needed power for this application. Can't say the 52 is perfect though... I sold that plane to my buddy and the 52 is back in the shop for the 3rd time in the last yr with maybe 15 flights on that plane. I keep telling him that it's unusal but he's not too impressed right now to say the least. Service time is also a bit slow... sat there for 2 weeks the last 2 times it was in.
