To me, he is Charlie but to my partner, who named her after his wife, she is Cindy Lou. Guess we are politically correct with a trans-gendered plane. No comments necessary! I also bought him on my husband's birthday and told him he now has a plane and pilot at his beck and call! (Joe was born on Halloween and I was born on the 4th of July. Some of our friends call us Bang and Boo!)

Username Protected wrote: Well done. Congrats. I'm biased, but I think it's absolutely one of the most versatile airplanes flying. It is a plane I can fly the rest of my life and not worry about finding parts (a real problem when I had the Travel Air although I loved flying it) or someone who can work on it. The insurance is so much cheaper and it will outlast me! It has less than 900 hours on it and the engine has less than 300 hours on it. (When they started building the 182s again they had a hours or years dependent engine life so it had to be replaced at 600 hours as it timed out.)

Murray Murray, you met my partner, Jim, at Oshkosh. It was pouring down rain at the time!

I had borrowed him in the past to do things like Angel Flights for wheelchair kids as it had 2 doors and is easier to get in than the Archer or Saratoga. Also had gone to Oshkosh the last two years in it with the owner (and now my partner). After the deal was done, I read my horoscope for the day - oh no! And then on Facebook my friend posted the cartoon below! Charlie is a 1999 Cessna 182, steam gauge with a Garmin 530 and Garmin transponder ADSB in and out which is just fine for me. Congratulations Jeanné! Now you have to plan some fun trips!

One can't go wrong with a 182 for all the reasons that you mention. RM
