Sid, a twin engine plane is stupid expensive and only looks affordable compared to a turbine powered airplane. You will need to have a real kick ass real estate business to make enough to write off the costs of flying yourself in a private airplane. We have the advantage of charging for our flying and the costs of an airplane are just breathtaking.
It is a reality check that when one of the pilots here would rather drive to Dallas than fly down. The cost of the flight on top of finding ground transportation just takes the fun out of it. My friend with the 210 flies up to Ponca City on the occasional pretty weekend day for lunch. He calls that the $500 lunch special and his 210 is paid for long ago.
