Good Afternoon Ben,
Your message piqued my interest. While looking around at a few Commanders,
I noted one Commander 700 that sounded interesting. I didn't even know such
an airplane existed.
Would the guys and gals on this list consider me to be a deserter if I
bought a low wing airplane?
Anybody know where to find out more information about one of these? I did
check the Type Certificate Data Sheets. The max gross weight seems
reasonable. Any idea what a typical empty weight would be?
What I need is information concerning speeds actually made good and physical
dimensions. There are maximum wing span considerations at my home drome.
Obviously, any big maintenance problems in addition to the relatively short
airframe life?
Any leads to more information would be appreciated.
Happy Skies,
Old Bob

Bob:
The Commander 700 was not a Tough Bird type Ted Smith Commander.
IIRC that plane was manufactured by Fuji Heavy Industries and imported and
marketed by Commander. It was a pressurized aircraft.
There may be a good reason why not many of them sold.
I'm certain there are people on this list more knowledgeable than I on this
subject.
