AOPA Cardinal tax value?

I applaud AOPA's effort to restore old aircraft and all that, but
considering that the base price of a new SR22 is $371,200, does it really
make sense to plow $350,000 into an old airframe?

I seems to work for AOPA and that is all that really matters isn't it? It is
good advertising for the companies who donate materials and services, and AOPA
apparently makes enough on the raffle sales to make it worth their while. As a
nice little plus, they get some fair magazine articles out of the deal.

Would it make sense for YOU to plow $350,00 into that same airframe? Of
course not!
