GA Flying Down 20%
I don't think many military airplanes have used avgas since 2000, and
the drop since this is still very dramatic. I won't say GA is dead, but it certainly is very sick. I'm looking at BMW motorcycles this weekend, having decided I simply can't afford an airplane of the capability I really need to be useful (Skylane or better) and the inconvenience of he nearest airport with hangars being 45 minutes away. If I buy a new bike, I'll probably drop my flying club membership and ride. Don't get me wrong -- riding is great. (Just got my Goldwing out of winter storage last weekend.) But it ain't flying... Nothing is. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"
