john amann, e-mail, 21.06.2017 17:41 Given all the bad PR and stories the MU is a great plane and one has to get some time before thinking they can just jump in and take over like a Cessna. I fly in southern Florida and into grass fields without an issue (manatee airport) and my MU is great for its class. It is reliable as long as you maintain it properly. With its recent rebuild it will go for another 30 years faster and more comfortable. Key is to get the training needed as there are different procedures for emergencies and engine out situations.

John Constantine, e-mail, 06.01.2012 21:54 We have owned an MU-2M since new in August 1975 for use in our company. Our aircraft is one of only 2 MU-2's purchased by the original owners. It has been an extremely reliable and capable aircraft. I must also take issue with the comment made by Jon. The MU-2 has wonderful stall characteristics and Jon's comment is totally incorrect. The spoilers acturally improve roll control at stall. Most negative comments made about MU-2's are by people who have never flown them and therefore unqualified to comment.

JT Baker, e-mail, 11.01.2011 10:26 Many well maintained MU-2's are available here in the USA at very reasonable prices. I would like to make contact with individuals or corp. organizations interested in leasing or purchasing MU-2's for the Brazilian market. Please contact me: sglase@aol.com J.T. 7 JAN 2011

JohnEBoy, e-mail, 25.06.2010 16:44 I am wondering why so many places i see the specs as flt level 28K yields a cabin of 8.8k yet specs here list the ceiling at 36.1K ft. Are the specs wrong or can the craft be flown at that level safetly without extra stress on the pressurized cabine?

john waller, e-mail, 28.02.2010 21:17 I fly these airplanes nearly everyday for a large cargo operator in the east coast. I love this airplane and to say it's more inclined to stall with spoilers is totally false.
It's fast economical and very safe when flown by a well trained pilot. If I had the ability I'd own one in a heartbeat.

Jon, e-mail, 25.01.2010 02:24 The MU2 is an orphanmaker. Instead of using alerons for roll control, it uses spoilers, so at recommended minimum airspeeds it is extremely inclined to stall.

William C Wilson, e-mail, 16.02.2009 06:22 I have seen this plane at Jefco back in about 1969 when I received my pilots certificate. Now I am looking for an aircraft, and you all know what it will be. Here in Brazil, at least Sao Paulo, there are many flying well. Good for flying into short fields, and not hard paved ones at that.

gordon mcmahon, e-mail, 22.09.2008 03:05 I worked on them for several years at the Houston service center. They are a great airplane, but not for a biginner.Recommend a good school such as flt safety for instruction and check out.It does not deserve the reputation it has acquired. Mac

Barnie Slice, e-mail, 17.05.2008 02:07 I love flying Radio Controlled model airplanes and it has always been a dream of mine to build a model of a MU-2 but cannot find plans or kit for it. Someone told me a European company carries one. Does anyone know?

Al Watson, e-mail, 14.05.2008 16:26 The Astazou engine was a 565 shp engine. The picture is serial number MU-2A 3. I have a photo of cockpit but do not know how to send an attachment. I also have color photos of same aircraft.I teach MU-2 ground School at Howell Enterprises in Smyrna TN.
