Today I became a co-owner

Good deal Jack!! You are going to have one of the biggest learning
experiences of your life... This is going to change your life, not to
mention your bank account.. :-) I'm curious as to what your insurance
requirements are... For me it was 10 hours with CFI and then 10 hours
solo before carrying pax. Keep us up on your adventure...

Well, the saying that the third time is the charm certainly is the case
for me and my two partners. Today, two of us closed the deal on a very
nice '71 Arrow and flew part of the way home. As I write this, I'm in
Farmington, New Mexico. We started the day at Front Range airport in
Colorado. Only made it 150 miles closer to home but this was the best
we could do given the weather conditions and a later afternoon start.

Planning on posting pictures somewhere and more details when I get home
but just wanted to post a quick note to say I'm officially a co-owner. I
got a chance to fly N2104T yesterday and log my first 1.2 hours of
complex time. My second time as PIC will be tomorrow morning.

It's a sweet Arrow. Very nicely maintained and by far the nicest one we
looked at. I don't think it's really sunk in yet. I've been rather
quiet about all of this and things have happened really fast. The ad
popped up in TAP just under two weeks ago and picked up speed quickly.
