The logical solution is obviously to compromise: fly both a high

And a Staggerwing will make her very dear to you. If your relationship
becomes very productive, an Antonov 2 is an obvious choice...


I was thinking about that. Yes, an Antonov AN-2, the very thing.

The ground handling might be a tad difficult for the Lady of the House,
admittedly, but it's probably easier to drive a tug than to master that
'run in place on the mainwheels' thing the local Stearman pilots practice.
