Comparing B2A & B2B

The flight characteristics between the B2B and B2A are very close. Airspeed is the same. The only problem is the B2A is carburated and lacks the power of the B2B fuel injected, but will haul 2 people very well in most areas, if the engine is healthy.

The B2A in warm or cold weather usually starts easier than the B2B. I have owned each and like I said, if the engine in a B2A is in good shape, it's a decent performer and will haul two 180 lb. people (360 lbs.) with half a tank of gas.
