Default All good for two more years.

My brother & I bought our 1975 Cessna 172M new, justifying it to our
wives then by noting we hadn't smoked for the previous 20 years
(actually never) & now we wanted to spend the money we had saved.
Somehow they let us do it. I had to buy out his half when he developed
MS a few years ago.

The amount I spend on it including hangar, insurance maintenance etc is
about what a 2 pack/day smoker would spend on cigarettes. We didn't
figure on the value going up like it has. I still look at heavy
smokers & think that owning an airplane is a helluva lot more fun.
