I’ve got about 16 hours on my “new” Crusader as I write this. There are some major differences compared to the one I sold. First, it has the optional cargo door which is nice, but not absolutely necessary. It also adds about 25 lbs. empty weight. In total, my new Crusader is about 100 lbs. heavier than my old one. That’s a lot, and I plan to weigh the airplane at some point to see if it is accurate. I may be forced to leave behind some of the luxurious (and heavy) camping gear I’ve accumulated over the years for my annual trip to Oshkosh!

But the biggest difference between my new and old birds are the MT composite props. The “new” airplane is much smoother and quieter. In fact, the difference is amazing. As reported by others, you have to be careful with these props when reducing power to idle. The drag from those four blades act exactly like speedbrakes and the airplane will slow quickly.

12 | TWINCESSNA.ORG THE TWIN CESSNA FLYER • AUGUST 2018 | 13 TTCF MEMBER SURVEY

RESULTS - PT. 1 by Bob Thomason, TTCF Editor

Every few years we ask our members to complete a survey about themselves, their airplanes, and their flying. Knowing key facts about these subjects helps us fine-tune the organization to best meet member needs. Earlier this spring, we conducted our third survey since I took over as President in 2010. This article is the first of two, presenting the results of our most recent survey.

     

This chart is self-explanatory, but here are the key takeaways:

• 310s make up the largest single group of airplanes. This makes sense as 310s are the largest group of Twin Cessnas on the FAA registry, comprising 39% of the total. Of our 310 owner survey respondents, 11% own tuna-tank classics, 48% own short-nose non-classics, and 41% are 310R owners. Interestly, compared to our 2014 survey, we have a lower percentage of tuna-tank classics now (20% in 2014), and a higher percentage of 310Rs (32% in 2014). • Among all our respondents, total cabin-class Twin Cessnas outnumber non-cabin class airplanes 52% to 43%, and this trend is increasing. People tend to join an owners organization shortly after they buy their airplane, when excitement and enthusiasm are high. There has been more market activity among cabin class Twin Cessnas than non-cabin class in the last few years. • Five percent of our member respondents do not own Twin Cessnas - yet. These are the smart ones, learning all they can before taking the plunge. • Our members who own T303s have doubled from two to four percent since 2014. The 303-dedicated section of the Forum has helped drive this.

We asked survey respondents what airplane they owned prior to their current Twin Cessna hoping, to find a pattern. All we found was that the vast majority moved up from single engine airplanes or other light twins. There was no model (say 210 or Cirrus) that was more prevelant than others. They ran the gamut from a Scottish Aviation Bulldog (whatever that is!) to a Beechcraft Queen Air to TMBs and Pilatuses.

We also asked survey participants what airplane might eventually replace their Twin Cessna. Again, no specific model emerged, but most either listed a larger airplane like a single engine turboprop or said their Twin Cessna would be their last airplane. That makes sense given the average age of our members (shown later).

And finally, about 36% of our member respondents own an airplane other than their Twin Cessna. Most were smaller airplanes including homebuilts and taildraggers.

• About 9% of survey respondents are brand new Twin Cessna owners, buying their airplanes within the last year. • A full 41% bought their Twin Cessnas in the last five years, which represents a healthy amount of fleet turnover. • 55% have owned our airplanes longer than five years, making us a well-balanced organization of longtime and new owners.

(continued on page 16)

14 | TWINCESSNA.ORG THE TWIN CESSNA FLYER • NOVEMBER 2017 | 15 SURVEY RESULTS (continued from page 14)

• Our member respondents flew their Twin Cessnas an avearage of 101 hours in the 12 months prior to the survey. That’s about the same as our 2014 survey. • A full 61% of us flew100 hours or less in the past year, and that percentage is up from 49% in 2014. • One reason for more people flying less is that a number of members reported their airplanes were down for significant periods for avionics or other upgrades. • Since 36% of our members own more than one airplane, their total flight time per year is higher than reported here. We have many members who fly professionally as well.  

• 40% of those who responded to the survey either fly or have flown professionally in the past. This is up from 29% in 2014. • 24% are currently flying professionally. • The percentage of retired professional pilots among our membership has increased from 12% in 2014 to 17% in 2018. This is a reflection of the increasing wave of retirement from the airlines which is expected to accelerate in the next 10 years. We can expect this portion of our membership to continue increasing.

    

We’ve never asked this question on one of our surveys before but the chart at left shows the age distribution of our membership. We are definitely an older group:

• 38% of us are over 65. • Only about a quarter of us are middle aged (55) or younger. • Only 9% are 45 or younger. • Only two people completing the survey were under 30 years old. • The average age of our members is 61 years old.

Is this something specific to our group that we should be concerned about? I don’t think so; it’s just a reflection of overall pilot demographics. Plus, one has to have accumulated some level of financial assets to buy a Twin Cessna and that most often doesn’t occur until later in life.

16 | TWINCESSNA.ORG  !" !"  !

The chart to at left is self-explanatory.

SPECIAL 310 SIGHTINGS

Above: I received these pictures and the email below from member Charles Schlumberger, who travels the world extensively in his position as Lead Air Transport Specialist for the World Bank.

Bob, I’ve attached two pictures I recently took in Burkina Faso. The Civil Aviation Authority of Burkina Faso displays this C310 at the entrance of its headquarters in Ouagadougou. The stairs are so that school children can have a look at the cockpit.

You are welcome to publish the picture at one of the future magazines. Maybe entitle it, “A somewhat glorious final resting place of a C310 in Western Africa.”

Left & Editor’s Note: I had no idea where Burkina Faso was, so I looked it up. It is a former French colony that gained independence in 1960 as the Republic of Upper Volta. It was renamed Burkina Faso after a coup in 1983.

Right and Below: This email came from Harold “Woody” Wood, head of EAA Chapter 93 in Indiana, PA. Woody leads the team that has restored one of actor Jimmy Stewart’s 310s - a 1960 F model. He reports:

The Jimmy Stewart Museum had Judy Stewart (daughter) here this past Friday to give the George Bailey award to Rocky Bleier. Saturday afternoon we hosted Judy to a Power Point presentation covering the restoration progress, and showed the plane to her and the public. We served airplane cookies at this event. Judy was very excited about the plane and told several stories about riding in this 310 and also her dad’s Super Cub.

TRADING CRUSADERS

As some of you know, I just sold my these owners, I got a feel for who might lacked the optional cargo door I wanted, T303 Crusader and bought another one. actually sell at a reasonable price and but it was extremely well-maintained I had owned N9476C, a 1982 model (s/n who wouldn’t. This approach generates and had lived a pampered life. Just my 179) for about seven years - the longest a group of good airplanes to look at. kind of bird! I bought it for $170,000 I had ever owned an airplane. I had and immediately began the upgrade invested over $200,000 in upgrades and One Crusader owner who responded to process. only needed a few more things to make my 2011 letter was Tom Srachta from it perfect. Why sell? I’ll explain. Morris, IL. Tom had serial number 296, I had seven great years with 76C, and which was one of the last built, so I went then something tragic happened: Tom When I was shopping for 76C I used a to Morris to see it. It had a beautiful Srachta passed away suddenly in late technique that 2017. A few had worked months went by well for me in and I contacted the past. The Tom’s widow, best airplanes Judy, and his are usually good friend and not actively hangar-mate, for sale, yet Tim Applegate, if you can who also owns locate a good a nice 303. I off-market wanted to offer airplane, to help them approach sell it. I was the owner, Two great Crusaders. I sold the red one, a 1982 s/n 179, to member Barney Welch and bought the happy with 76C and make a black one, a 1984 s/n 296, from Tom Scrachta’s widow, Judy. and in fact was strong offer, getting ready you can sometimes get a great airplane paint job and was well-equipped. I made to buy a set of MT props for it. But in and avoid all the run-outs and project him a strong offer, but no luck. It was talking to Judy and Tim, I was reminded planes listed online. (I’m stunned by the clear Tom did not want to sell it. (Tom of what a great airplane Tom owned and number of stories I hear about airplanes later wrote a great piece on his airplane how extensively he had upgraded it. that are completely misrepresented in for the August 2010 issue of this Among other things, he had just added their online spec sheets.

Barney was TAS’s N303CM to customer for the prebuy and they were me in the top looking out for his interests and not center of the picture. mine. That’s how a good shop works.

I already had N303CM under contract, and with my airplane sold, was ready to take delivery. Tony had done a prebuy along with Tom’s mechanic a few weeks earlier. It had required a new cylinder and a new nose gear bell crank but was now ready to go. The day after I completed the sale of 76C to Barney, Tim graciously flew 3CM from Morris to Defiance so I could take delivery.

Some of you may have met Tom Srachta. He was a regular Convention attendee. If you had a chance to talk to him, you knew how much he loved flying. Like many of us, he fell in love with flying as a child and took lessons as soon as he could. He flew continuously throughout his life and owned a succession of airplanes. The Crusader had been his favorite. He and his wife Judy (they met in high school) had countless memorable trips in 303CM.

Every time I visited Morris during the buying process - for the initial test flight, the prebuy, etc. - Judy was there. After each flight, she would get out a spray bottle and towel and clean the airplane, often with tears in her eyes. And when Tim towed the airplane out of Tom’s hangar to fly it away from Morris for the last time and deliver it to me, Judy sprinkled Tom’s ashes on the wings of this special airplane. Over time, 3CM will become more and more my airplane. But it will never become totally mine and that’s OK. I’m honored to be its caretaker and hopefully someday, pass it on to someone else who will love it as much as Tom did and I eventually will, I’m sure.
