You too, mate.Avagudweegend
Back in the early 70's, when I was just learning to fly, I taxied off the south ramp of Norfolk International Airport (ORF) onto the taxiway. I looked to the right, and saw an older very large twin engine aircraft sitting back in the trees. Later, I walked back behind the Civil Air Patrol quonset hut to look at it. It had "Doobie Liner" painted on the side. I was told that it belonged to the Doobie Brothers, and had caught fire, and Burned on the ground. They just towed it into the bushes, and left it there while the insurance company figured out what to do with it.

Oh, yeah! I owned a Cessna 150J for a few years. The say that a boat is a hole in the water that one pours money into, but a plane is much worse, except for the insurance. It cost me less to insure the plane for $1,000,000.00 liability (with 3 pilots on the insurance policy) than it cost to insure a super beetle and a van for full coverage.but I really don't want the hassle (or time sink) of owning a plane.
Yeah, it needs a weeeee bit of work! Probably should add 2 engines to that long list of repairs($$$$$$$) Cha Ching!!I will not be bidding on it.
