Ask me about my first annual some day, when you're feeling especially cocky
about owning your own airplane...

Do not ask me about my first annual. I still suffer anger pains.
The bill was $14,385.00 afetr the plane was taken apart for the pre buy
inspection.

What was wrong with it ? I know, you said don't ask about it, but
might be enlightening for the group... Frankly that is a staggering
number for a 172, unless some major engine or structural repair work
was involved ?
