I've gotta do a new panel in it now to be legal and don't have the money until my middle daughter finishes college.

I used to think owning an airplane was expensive until my daughter went off to college. Airplanes are cheap!

I started out with a $5,500 Cessna 150. A lot of my flying was in an MOA and I had the pleasure of getting passed on the right and level by a B-52. And of all things, after he passed me, he slid right back over into my lane!

That's the truth palmer ...

I got my private in a 152 in Vero Beach Fl. I did it quick because I couldn't take one more cramped hour shoulder to shoulder with an instructor. I then went to cherokees, arrows, and the aztec D.

My favorite GA plane ever was a Cardinal RG. Smoothe, spacious, kinda nice layout. A bit underpowered compared to a 205 , but still very nice to fly.

Worst GA plane ever was the Traumahawk.
