I'm wondering if anyone on the list here might have some experience with the 680 T, V, or W series of aircraft and be willing to share their thoughts and insight (positive or negative) on these planes. I understand that the engines ( -34A ) are somewhat orphaned but that there may still be a couple shops supporting them. It's also my understanding that most of the airframe parts are shared with the 680FL(p). Please correct me on these items if I'm wrong. Naturally I'm interested in any information you're willing to share, of particular interest however would be real world experiences on what one should expect for TAS and fuel burn, common maintenance issues, and areas to pay particular attention to during a pre-purchase inspection. Again, any thoughts, comments, or experiences that you're willing to share are appreciated. Sincerely, John Atkin IV Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=281050#281050 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message commander-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/Commander-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/commander-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/commander-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
