Well wannabe, I just bought a 74 P337 and I have zero time to fly her, so maybe I should just "give" her to you !! I think this discussion centers around economics. These quirky 337's are expensive to fly and maintain. Most guys with singles have a hard enough time with the wife to keep the single engine flying machine around. If I just "gave" my 337 to a single owner, and he took the time for the training (Piece of cake) , there would come a time that the "Light bulb" would go "on", and he would no longer feel "safe" flying his single. As for the conventional twin owners, I "prefer" to have my engines inline. Pilots as a whole are a sharp group of folks, it baffles me why the "light bulb" has not gone "on" for many, many more of them. I have NO WAY to put a price on the safety of myself, and my passengers. DW
