I could not see you and Justina being happy with that airplane.
Perhaps I don't have the vision...but, open cockpit? Taildragger? It might be fun for a weekend...but to commit to using that aircraft exclusively? I don't think so.
Well Gary, with 100LL hitting $6.00 per gallon here, that means that it now costs us 10 times more to fly then to drive.

Which means we'll be flying less, driving more, and sticking closer to home. In which a slower, open cockpit, plane will do just fine.
