I really want my own plane. I want to know its available when I want it, and I want to know at least how its been taken care off. I'm not worried about whats the most economical.
I'm 6' and 190lbs, my wife is fairly tall and I'm guessing is 135lbs. We are both retired now and have the time to use it. I also like the fact that I could fly down and visit my dad that lives around 150 miles away and stay a few days if I want. We also have relatives that live within 300 miles that we would also do this at times.
And Ive been looking at some of the old Pacers too. I really like the looks of them.
