Maybe we should bring everybody up to date here about the time line. Presently the plane is in for annual. There is a list of minor squawks the present owner wants to take care of. In addition to these, there is a small dent in the trailing edge of the left elevator. So the owner is having it replaced and painted. The owner did not like the looks of the yokes, so he is replacing them with a pair with installed PTT switches. I think he is also replacing both side windows. And this is all after the agreed price of the sale!
So it will more than likely be a few weeks before the owner will let the plane go. And I am for sure not complaining! Except for the fact of being very eager to get behind the controls!
