A friend of mine has a saying about buying airplanes.

"Money will fix a lot of things on an airplane, however airframes, hours,
and abuse aren't one of them"

Kind of Yogi Berra-ish but what it means is that if you find an airplane you
want, and it's airframe is straight and solid, if it hasn't been abused or
wrecked, and if it's relatively low time for the $$, then everything else
that's wrong with it can be fixed with $$. The reverse is never possible no
matter how much $$ you have or want to spend on it.

Jim
