    --> Commander-List message posted by: "Patrick Nickles" <aerocommander@nickles.cc> Hi Barry - I had QuietFlight installed in my single-engine Commander last summer and it was money well spent. I don't know how well it would work in the different Twin Commander models, but in my baby Commander it works as advertised. The cockpit IS more quiet, BUT I believe the most important factor is the vibration reduction which significantly lowers overall pilot fatigue. (I emailed him after buying the system and he posted my comments on his website. No, I don't have any ownership interest in the product - I just know that I plan to have the system installed in any future aircraft I might own (i.e. hopefully a Twin Commander in the near future.))

    --> Commander-List message posted by: Buddy Windham <bw_cycon@yahoo.com> Hey Barry, I'm the 560 you mentioned in your email. The problems do exist and you will have a problem with your 680. I'm also the dealer in Michigan. As of this date they do not have an effective 6 seat system using one controller. They would have to sell you two systems. As to doing your plane my advise is to wait a while and see if the program problems can be corrected.

Looks like an awesome idea.... http://www.quietflight-llc.com/ I spoke with the guy this morning...very professional. He said a 4 place system runs about $7K. My big question is this. He had problems doing a 560 because of the huge number of noise spikes due to the geared motors, firing sequence, props, etc. Am I correct in assuming that I would have the same issues in the 680E? I know some of you techies out there might be able to help.... Thanks in advance for your input! BTW, flew 680E up to Morris' new place the other day. I'm looking forward to getting the annual/100 hr./sqwaks done, AND it looks like I have some interest in a partnership....gulp....again. However, I'm much more comfortable entering a partnership again after receiving my Masters in Airplane Partnerships for the P.O. School of Deception and Dishonesty.

    --> Commander-List message posted by: Buddy Windham <bw_cycon@yahoo.com> Pat, the system will work in a 500 series, non geared motors, but only in a four seat configuration.There are problems(programing) doing a 6 seat, single controller unit.

Scottsdale AZ, the 27 -29th. John Bosch (Commander Aero), Barry Collman and myself will be there. I havent heard from anybody else. Last time, Moe Mills, Andrew Foss, Dan Domingues, Chris Wall, Morris Kernick, John Vormbaum and a couple of other members made it, but this has been a tough year for many of us so?? Hope you can make it. jb
