Default CAVU and I'm Grounded!

ARRRRGHH!

Just took possession of a '67 172 on Monday. Aside from work obligations and
IFR weather in the DFW area the past week, I was really really really
looking forward to this morning (Sat) to take my first flight alone in the
new bird.

Going over the logs once again last night (about the 4th time...) it
suddenly hits me - there's no record of a 24 month transponder check!!!
Grounded!!! Of all the checks we did on the pre-purchase, that one slipped
by. Shame on me. And it is one heckuva beeeyoutiful day out there. *sigh*

Oh well; that's the joy of aircraft ownership, I guess.....

Carl
