The owner is a long time friend of my father, and he invited us out to fly it because he is getting ready to sell it. Dont ask me why! I think he is moving up to something he can land on the water Anyway, he took us up (one at a time obviously) for about 30min a piece. It was awesome!! Open air flying is so cool. He let me take the controls for some time (me dad used to be a pilot so I have the basics down) so I didnt get too many in flight pics. This plane is basically flawless. Probably one of the nicest in the country! Me and my dad for scale Just after takeoff: Random in flight pic: Back on the ground safely : I even got some video! http://cuwaste.kiss.mine.nu/~king/Flying/ Obviously the ones from the ground are of my dad #4559 of 6535 born on Feb 17, 1998 Black 1998.5 CSVT FOR SALE [cleaning house]: SVT rear swaybar.

I just grew up around it, as we used to have a Piper of our own. I just went up with the friend of ours. . . #4559 of 6535 born on Feb 17, 1998 Black 1998.5 CSVT FOR SALE [cleaning house]: SVT rear swaybar. Reasonable offer and its yours!

On second thought, it's probably more of a hangar, but who cares! 1996 MM Zetec, ATX 192000 kms...not dead, but I'm not fixing it White people love Wayne Brady because he makes Bryant Gumbel look like Malcolm X.
