I'm sorry that you misunderstood that part of the post. Dad wasn't wealthy when he bought his first airplane. It hurts to say that after 40+ years in the aviation business, he still wasn't wealthy when he recently passed away. He was always honest in his business, financial, and accounting methods. The larger airplane I mentioned was his moving up to a 150. That's right, UP to a 150.
My apologies for posting here.
