Private pilots who spend a lot of time carrying their families on long-distance journeys know that stable flight characteristics and a spacious cabin can be far more valuable than sporty handling and category-leading cruising speed.
When it comes to carrying passengers, it is best to make the trip as much like traveling in the family car as possible. Your spouse, children, and friends are interested in reaching their destination in a brisk, uneventful fashion, not learning about or experiencing side slips or steep turns. Making sure your flights are straight, level, and smooth will keep your loved ones coming back.
Saratogas truly are set up to make long trips as comfortable as possible, with club seating and one of the widest cabins in the GA piston fleet. Turbocharging gives the airplane for sale here an advantage of more power at higher altitudes than non-turbo models. It can take advantage of higher speeds in the thin air of the flight levels. This aircraft also comes with factory air conditioning and a supplemental oxygen system.
