Beautiful part about older (but serviceable) airplanes, is that they

I would like to see some hard data to support this claim. While this
was true of certain aircraft in the late '80s and early '90s, once
Cessna restarted production and Cirrus and Diamond are now delivering
in significant numbers, I seriously doubt this still holds true.


I don't think anything Cessna, Cirrus or any of the others are doing is
affecting the value of my 56 year old airplane. I suspect that holds true
for 99.5 percent of the fleet.
