Good for you, Jay! I get so tired of hearing folks whine about my airplanes when they drive up in their $40,000 SUVs whose insurance is more each year than our two taildraggers combined. I don't work and my husband doesn't make a six figure salary, but we manage to fly about 300 hours a year together. It's all about priorities. I have noticed, too, that some pilots will not fly unless they are flying the newest, the best, or the fastest. Consequently, these are airplanes few can afford. Let them stay on the ground. I don't mind puttering over their heads ;-). Deb -- 1946 Luscombe 8A (His) 1948 Luscombe 8E (Hers) 1954 Cessna 195B, restoring (Ours) Jasper, Ga. (JZP) Exactly. Our old Cherokee needs a paint job and a lot more, but we fly and fly and fly. I had a Tri-Pacer for 20 years and often had pilots ask when I was going to get something faster and better. Funny thing is that most of them never had a plane at all. -- Gene Seibel Hangar 131 - http://pad39a.com/gene/plane.html Because I fly, I envy no one. |
