Bill, let me answer that with an analogy.
Now...apply that to airplanes. In Alaska, Jeff has a "girlieplane" with his nice avionics and 100 hp engine. What Jeff NEEDS in Alaska is a "hairy chested, knuckle dragging, gorilla plane" otherwise known as a 150/150. All of the other fancy stuff can wait.
So....Jeff...when are you calling on the 150/150.
I cannot top that!!
So, Jeff should really be interested in the deal I was hoping to make. I want to purchase John's airplane. Swap engines with 9ED and then sell 9ED. With it's peeling paint, scratches and dings, Jeff should be right at home with 9ED in Alaska! (Well, It will prolly be 7WJ by then! Or, how does one swap numbers between two airplanes?)
Oh! And I would still let John have the avionics!
So, John would have his airplane gone and a good stack of avionics for his other plane. We would have the 150/150 that we want. And Jeff would have the hairy chested beast of a 150/150 that he needs in Alaska! Everybody wins!!
