I can imagine selling a plane is a bittersweet experience. One, I hope I don't have to endure unless I have another one in the hangar already.


Gary,
It is called sellers remorse. Every airplane I've owned I regreted the necessity of letting the bird go. The first, an Aeronca Chief, did not have an electrical system. The circumstances under which I was "propping" were less than desirable, from a safety standpoint, so it left for California. The second, a Cessna 140, simply did not have enough room for all the "stuff" my fledgling aviator grandaughter needed to accompany her on a cross country. Goodby Cessna 140,hello Cessna 172. Shortly after acquiring the 172, grandaughter discovered boys, aviation interest zeroed! A family illness, and lack of free time saw the bird go to two very good friends. I see the bird every week and that is remorse in spades! But the bird is in good hands and is greatly appreciated. Who knows, Clinton is only a few weeks off,might find the "right one" there!
