Ethan James Baughman | Commercial Baron Pilot
Owning an aircraft can certainly be a big responsibility, but it can also be very rewarding. In my case, owning the Baron was the right choice for me and my family. As an owner operator pilot, one can customize the aircraft to meet one’s specific needs and preferences, which can be a great advantage. Additionally, owning your own aircraft can provide you with more flexibility and control over your schedule, which can be especially valuable if you have a busy or unpredictable schedule. Of course, with ownership comes maintenance, insurance, and other associated costs, so it's important to carefully consider your budget and financial goals before making the decision to buy. It's also important to make sure you have the proper training and experience to operate the aircraft safely and responsibly.
