Finding the right plane does require patience ......... lots of it!
Jeff Hersom and I both lost patience, and got real lucky with good planes! We could just as easily have both been burned. If not in buying the wrong planes, at least in spending for the airline tickets. I flew mine home to Florida from New York, and Jeff flew his home to Florida from Ohio. It was the longest cross country at that time for both of us.
I think we both enjoyed our adventures emensely, and are now better prepared to find the right plane (with less risk) the next time.
