    Update: Used the AOPA template for a contract and sent it to the buyer. He is looking it over. He agreed to bring his mechanic to my hangar and do an annual.

    Wondering how many are going to vote by absentee ballot

    The lines at Walmart are longer than the lines to vote. They don't seem to have a problem.

    Reviving burger wars...

    We just got a Freddy's in our area and it is real good as are the fries. They pound their burgers flat and the edges come out crispy.

    Found a buyer now what

    I've done a few owner assisted annuals and it takes me two days to open all the inspection ports and pull all the interior so the mechanic can spend a couple of hours with the plane. Then a couple of days to put it back together. I guess I can offer this as an alternative. Bring on those 95...

    Found a buyer now what

    Country living

    Wow, city folks "protecting" the cute deer. Meanwhile the over population kills them off through starvation and disease. They are long legged rodents and need to be controlled. Bonus they are edible.

    Thinking about a riding mower

    Not sure what your limit is but a Pro-QXT goes for a couple of AMU's for a 48 inch model. Add another AMU for accessories and it will last a life time.
