I think I will let it go as a $600.00 lesson learned
The thing I have learned as a first time buyer/owner: The headaches
associated with owning a plane can easily suck all the joy out of
ownership. Though it goes strongly against my nature I'm slowly learning
to let the little irritations go so that they don't sour my outlook on
flying.
I could list a half dozen little irritations as examples, but that would
set me back on my 12 step "let it go" program. :-)
All of life is that way. Any old airplane will have surprises. After a
few years you get most of them worked out and it gets better. After 24
years of airplane ownership, I wouldn't have it any other way. Maybe
it's because I don't play well with others.
