Why taxes on what you sold it for?

can get for that plane is $200,000, that's the legal value of it for tax

One nice thing about winning this airplane or any of the planes given away
by AOPA is that there will probably be people contacting you from day one
asking if you want to sell it. It wouldn't suprise me if AOPA doesn't have a
list already of people who want to buy it from the winner.

Think aout it. If you were in the market for a nicely updated light twin
wouldn't you call AOPA and ask them to give the winner your name?
