Piper Seneca II's

Anyone familiar with Piper Seneca II's from a performance/operating cost perspective?

How big of a deal is two gear up landings/on grass/ if properly repaired?

It depends on what was damaged in the gear up. Most of these are belly skin and antennas so the damage level is superficial. HOWEVER, I have recently seen some cases that impacted repairs to major structural components of the airframe itself. In those cases, the diminished value due to the event is quite a bit higher.

Good luck.
