I know how you feel Jay and I'm sorry to hear about your loss. I lost my
father suddenly almost 22 years ago when I was just 17. Some of my fondest
memories of him are of the two of us pulling the C182 out of the hangar,
doing the preflight, climbing in and just flying somewhere.
My mother sold the plane shortly after he died and it moved to the states
from canada. Incidently I recently found out where my fathers old plane
ended up. It is currently in Boise Idaho. It's new registration is N34BB.
Used to be CF-XNB.
And I will say a prayer for both of our dads!
