...let me clarify. For the continental US, flying GA is far more efficient because the number of suitable airports available to a small aircraft far exceeds the number available to our Part 121 and 135 brothers. On the other hand trying to go overseas, although feasible if one wants to wade through the International Flight Information Manual, is impractical at best.

Personally, if I was to choose a single to own and fly in the US it would be a toss up between three planes: the Columbia 400, the Cirrus SR-22 with the turbo conversion or the workhorse Cessna Caravan. If it was a multi, I'd go with the trusty King Air 200.
