Ya know Tom, some people just “LOVE SPEED”.
I’ve worked with a couple folks who could have been very happy with a Cessna 182 for their average mission but insisted on a Turbo Prop. I would show them in so many ways how a simple IFR aircraft will do the job for a couple hundred thousand but they spent the Multi-million for the one flight each two years that they may want to do.
Just as Braniff Airlines advertised… “if you’ve got it, flaunt it”
