Yeah, but a C560 can be a V (five), an Ultra, an Encore...

I'm thinking V because it looks like straight leg gear (not trailing link), and the style of stairs.

edit to add: According to year of manufacture it's an Ultra...

She's an Ultra. Hopefully soon I'll get a picture of her interior which has alligator hide accents.

I was in there not to long ago with a buddy checking out that 150. That thing was looking a little old. I was in JAX for the day and killed some time over there with him.

The 150 flies well but she's not the prettiest horse in the stable. Of course, she's been a trainer for the last 40 years so thats to be expected.

I like the Ultra. I think I've got 80 or 100 hours in one. Those straight legs almost always make for a "firm" arrival though.

Primus 1000, Universal FMS and Honeywell RTUs?

Our charter birds fly almost as much as our Archers, they're always shaking their money-makers!

Its called an AMD-CH2000. Its basically a low-wing 152 that screams a long at 85kias. On the radio we call her "Zenith 27Pop". She is a fun plane to fly but for some reason she doesn't fly very often.
