Great trainers!

They weren't getting students last summer. People had been spreading
the irresponsible rumor that the whole airport was closed, to the
point where people were telling Jeff at the Arlington show that his
airport had closed the year before, even with him standing in front of
them telling them that he ran the FBO there and no, it wasn't closed.
And it's still not closed.

But that didn't stop the insurance company from sending its bill each
month.

Personally, I feel pleased to have trained at an airport many pilots
don't consider themselves capable of operating out of, in airplanes
which were not pristine. Not only was the cost lower, but you had to
stay on the ball during preflight!

But if you're gonna buy an airplane from Jeff, buy the Cub! And let me
fly it... :-)

The
other has a big ding on the prop, needs battery and interior is roached 2
diffrent seats, looks like it may need some airframe work soon! and either
leaks a lot of oil for only having 200 hours on recent OH or some one dont
know how to poor oil in it with out spilling


It's probably the latter. These were student planes, after all.

We had to bang on the DME in that 172 from time to time, to get it to
work at all.
