You put your finger on one reason I sold the Maule. It took me 45 minutes
on a good day to drive to the airport. Over fairly heavily traveled 2-lane
roads that could easily add half an hour to the trip. Add in 20 minutes to
untie and pre-flight and 15 minutes to put her to bed and the entire
afternoon is gone for even a short flight.


Now George, we've been over this before. If you had been open to moving to
a more GA friendly part of the country, you, too, could have lived 30
seconds from your plane. You opted instead to remain in the congested
eastern part of the US, for purely economic reasons.

While this may have made perfect sense from a marital standpoint, it was
certainly no good reason to sell a perfectly good airplane!
