Thanks!

I have already taken your advice, I purchased the aircraft guide when I renewed my membership and I am waiting for it to arrive. I know that owning your own airplane can be expensive, I just want to make sure that if I do take the plunge I don’t have any ridiculous expenditures with things like corrosion or a bad engine...

If you are looking into buying, please use this club and all its resources to your advantage - there are a lot of technical experts and local folks to assist you.

And if you're considering buying, definitely purchase Mike Arman's guide to the aircraft available through the club, and definitely arrange a pre-buy inspection with a mechanic that DOES NOT work on the airplane for the current owner.

Welcome aboard!
