I would like to thank you in advance for any help provided, as I am sure many of your have answered these questions in the past. In addition, I am happy to take answers off line if that is better for the entire group. I am looking at purchasing a 235 and would like to know how flyable is this model? For the most part I am a 172 pilot with just over 100 hours. I have flown 172's 150's, Skipper and a Grumman Cheetah as this time. Is a 235 over my head? If this plane if not over my head, can you recommend a location one could receive a top notch Lancair pre-purchase inspection. I am in California, but I figure getting the right plane will be a nationwide event. I love these planes (although I have never flown one) and do not have the time to build. Your input is very much appreciated.
