Light aircraft are not a business tool. There is _no such thing_ as a
rational purchase of a light airplane. It's a heinously expensive toy
that will likely be a financial disaster no matter what. Don't go 95%
broke buying an unfulfilling spam can. Buy what you want, which if you
have anything but air you-know-where is probably aerobatic and may well
have a big round oil-puking engine.

Wichita nearly killed itself with BULL**** and FRAUD selling their
product as non-toys at a time in the Reagan 80s where F** The Worker
was the mantra and the stock market skyrocketed. Ferraris and Cigarette
boats sold like hotcakes. Light aircraft didn't because, well, Wichita
was run by idiots, losers, fundamentalist idiot morons and drunks.
Still is.


Beech could make a lot of money selling a recip T-34. They won't
because, one, they are spoiled rotten with the New T-6, a misnomer and
a buttf*** par excellence for Joe and Jane Taxpayer, and two, they are
corporate-stupid.


And if you are in Sedgwick County like I was, know this: I hope the
Ollies finally get forced in the light airplane business and run your
asses out of business like they were doing with Hardly-Ableson.

Nonetheless, he's right and you are wrong. You get the point. Or maybe
you just believe God cursed Wichita for allowing abortions or some such
theory as to why the aircraft business tanked.

Either the light just came on or that alarm just went off.

The gates are down, the lights are flashing, but the train is not coming.
