Thats the great thing about eBay... you can ask whatever price you want and someone might pay it! Just yesterday I had a guy telling me I was crazy for the price of the item I posted! You never know. It just might sell!

Todays high prices are tomorrows good deals!

Speaking of eBay there is a pretty interesting old photo of a derelict P-39 at a scrapyard I presume. It is 41-6973, not N16973 as the seller says.

It is priced a little high also for a small old Collect Air (Leo Kohn?) copy snapshot but I didn't recall seeing it before.

Just do one of the following:

-Keep a cheap Honda at each airport you go

-Rent a car

-Get a Helicopter

-Get a life :D

I missed a Coot on craigslist the other day.
It was in the free section in NH. :shock:
I had to look it up to see what it was, when I read that it was a Molt Taylor design from the late 60s I was suprised.
What a fun toy it could have been.
