What to do? Dig into the cookie jar and buy any parts you may need
NOW' rather than waiting until you need them. Indeed, even if you
aren't planning on building an engine, buying new engine components at
today's prices appears to be a wise INVESTMENT.

Sad but true. As a new retiree, and therefore newly on a fixed income,
inflation is my worst nightmare. On the other hand, inflation is great for
anyone who owes money. You get to pay it back in future years with far cheaper
dollars. New airplane anyone?
