Default Tow Vehicle Woes

Tony,
While I'm not in the market for a powered aircraft,
Honda or other make, I do live somewhat close to the
place where they will be assembled: Burlington, North
Carolina. In fact, Burlington is a common turnpoint
for us when we fly our 300 km FAI triangle around the
RDU Class C airspace.

This evening as I got off the bus coming back from
work, I saw a Subaru Forester in the park and ride
parking lot with a 'For Sale' sign on it. 2002 'S'
model with 72,000 miles. Asking $10k or best offer.

Normally aspirated four banger with four speed auto
tranny.

Has a trailer hitch on it.

I have been a Honda person for years, with four Honda
motorcycles, my
first Accord that ran for 396,000 miles before it
was totalled in a
wreck and my current Accord that has 201,000 miles
on it and remains a
great car. If Honda made sailplanes, I would probably
be lusting
after one all the time.



Do let me know when you take delivery of your Honda
business jet. I'd
love a ride in one :-).
