Congrad gibbo. I think this is what aviation is all about. Having fun flying and I wish you a lot of fun with your Piper.

Tell us, did you or did you not sleep in it on your first night as the owner? Be honest...  :)

Hey WOW!!!  Congrats Shane!!!  A round of Crownies is definitly in order!   ::drinking:: ::drinking:: ::drinking::

We'll skip the payments stuff.  I am certain you and Susy will have an awesome bunch of adventures in this bird in the years to come.

Maybe someday I'll come Down Under and we'll go for a little hop around the patch...   ::whistle::
