In keeping with the whole "annual inspection" theme, I just got a phone call from a troubled friend. Seems his annual -- conducted by the same guy who did his prebuy a year ago and who maintained the 2001 aircraft since new -- is up to at least $45,000. That's the estimate, and as we know estimates always end up being low. Downtime is expected to be at least a month.
No, there is no engine overhaul. No new cylinders. 7-year-old airplane. Sheesh.
