Just letting the community know that I have sold my nice IFR Skyhawk
after 12 years of ownership. The new owner took the annual in lieu of a
pre buy knowing the mechanic and how well I maintained the aircraft.

I have been cleaning out the hangar and either throwing things away or
getting ready to sell them.

The reason is medical. So own and fly when you have the chance, because
things can change on you.

I'll probably lurk around here from time to time. I am going to stay
active in EAA and AOPA (38 years now) and bum rides off of friends.

Stay safe and enjoy it while you can. I certainly am going to miss
looking down on the world from a perspective that not many get the
chance to do, except at 35,000 feet.

Sad news indeed, Ross.

I know that at some point, I will get there too (not too soon, I hope)
and am not looking forward to it. I suppose I'll just grab some dual
instruction from time to time just so I can stay in control in the
left seat.

My condolences and Best Regards,
