It was march of this year.
Maybe he just knew a good deal when he saw it.
If you take care of your plane, it will take care of you.

His comments were that he was glad to finally look at a plane that wasnt
trashed
out and had good avionics.


How soon after adding the upgrades did you sell it?

Adding avionics to a plane is like adding options to a used car; you seldom
get much back when you sell it. Like buying a car, it depreciates by about
2/3rds just driving it off the dealers lot.

This is not always true, when I sold my old cherokee 180, I had put a
new
garmin stack in, 430,x-ponder, audio panel and some other stuff, I got
back
90% of what I had into the plane, plus, it sold in 4 days.


It must have been a good market then because that is quite extraordinary
(unless you're dealing with someone who has more money than buying
savvy).
