    I was at KZPH (Zephyrhills, Fla.) on an overnight for business. I flew in about 9 pm. Everything was closed so I just left the Cirrus parked in front of the FBO.

    I went to the hotel, woke up, did business and made it back to the airport the following afternoon. I thought for sure they would have moved my plane but there it was right where I left it.

    I walked into the FBO and said "Hi, that's my Cirrus out there, can I get a fill up?" She says " that's yours? it's been very popular today, everyone has been out there looking at it until about 15 minutes ago when you got upstaged".

    There sat this. Flown by a company call DayJet

    It was a DayJet..

    Negative.

    Don't get me wrong. I'd love to own one. I'm a "most bang for the buck" kinda guy. The single engine turboprop guys have me sold on the benefits over the jet.

    I reread my original post and I'm sorry if it doesn't make much sense. I did a lot of editing trying to post the picture. Looks like I messed up a sentence.
