Michael,
Thanks for posting your experience. It's tough spending money to look
at airplanes and not buy them but obviously better than the other way
round. Good luck with your new ship.

Hello, all. Since there always seem to be questions on the group,
both mechanical and philosophical, about purchasing an aircraft, I
thought you might be interested in one pilot's odyssey from renter to
owner. During that trip, I have lurked here, read volumes about
purchasing and owning, and talked to a lot of people about their
experiences. In the end, I've concluded there is no right or wrong way
to make the choice/purchase, just a series of checks and balances that
make sense and protect the buyer to the greatest extent he can be.
This is my story.
