I joined there as well. Right now you can find parts. What about in 10 years? Sure, there are some common parts, like engine accessories, or brake lines, but what about flight controls, and other structural items? One bird strike, or one hangar rash incident, and you may end up grounded forever.[/quote]

That sounds so prophetic to be so factually inaccurate!
Simply not true. Numbers and demand will keep most”orphaned” airplanes flying far past our lifetimes. There is only one, I repeat, ONE, part that I cannot buy, new manufactured, for my 1952 Cessna 195, the main spar, and that can be fabricated if necessary.

Aerostars haven’t been made in 35 years and there is a 50 year supply of parts a phone call away.

But like I said: so prophetic.
