I'm kinda in that delemma myself presently, Charles. The opportunity arose to buy this Fisher FP-202 Kolala for $1,000 from a co-worker. It has turned out to be a real show plane. Absolutely gorgeous workmanship with only 19 flying hours. A couple of members of a local EAA chapter have advised me to take it to Arlington, for it would surely win top prize in the Ultralite category. It is that pretty! I was further advised to start at $15,000, if I decided to sell it. That would be quite a substantial return on my investment, to say the least.
Now, what to do? Do I keep and learn how to fly it? Or sell it for a quick profit? Sure looks like fun to learn how to fly. But oh how the conscience would hurt if I ever wrecked it. what ever should I do??
