I've been a mite tardy with the updates of late, please forgive me. Here's what I know:
Bobby A's is the new restaurant next door, and they are finally providing a confident date of September 28! That's in 2 weeks!
We are very excited at having a proper and classy restaurant on the field. Initial hours will be for breakfast and lunch, with a later expansion to dinner! Patio seating will be coming later on, with beer and wine, and a good view of the final approach.
Sweet!
Some maintenance faces to make:
Cessna 630 showed up with some low oil pressure on a recent run-up. We didn't like it, and it is off to the engine shop to scrutinize. We expect her back on Tuesday.
Cessna 68U is awaiting her crack at the hangar. We still contemplate selling her off and replacing her with something more saucy.
Cessna 20U is cruising.
Cessna 739 is due out of her mega-100hr inspection midweek next week.
Cessna 1ES has a new CHT probe -- sorry for those of you wondering if the engine was trying to melt :) but good catch, pilots!
Cessna 17J will go in for her 100hr Monday, with an expected release on Tuesday.
Cessna 25R is running great!
Piper 85Y has had her price reduced to $59,999 :) Tell a friend.
There is talk on the ranch, again, of replacing 85Y with a 182 instead of a Duchess - and partnering with a local school for shared twin use instead. Hmm!
There is also talk, again, of replacing 68U with another 150 instead of a 172M/N/P model.
Hmm... ideas!
More as I know it -- warm out, grab some water before flying! Cooked pilots make crummy landings... ask me how I know :)
Blue Skies,
- Mike
