I taught him to fly about 10 years ago, test flew this plane with him when he bought it and did his insurance checkout. Jeanné, this is great to hear; adding an airplane partnership to an already strong, long standing relationship! I have the privilege of being partners with 2 friends since 1976 in our 1958 182. It's a rare and wonderful thing.

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. Haha Great Post!!!! Congrats!

Congratulations, Jeanné! Stuart, Thanks. Absolutely it is. I analyzed my needs for a while before jumping in. Could have bought an older twin or faster single by myself but decided I needed a newer (less than 20 years old) and lower time plane with a partner. Already thinking about some panel changes.

Congrats the 182 is a GREAT airplane. JW that you are now looking at panel upgrades is a given. You are a BT'r....

Joe and Charlie have now officially met. Where do you take your husband and boyfriend on a first date?  To a sold out Chiefs game. Nail biter and you can see that no one was leaving early even though it was very cold. We got home just in time to see the end of the game and overtime. Chiefs won! For you airspace Nazis, I know that there is a TFR!  Got flight following from approach with a Class Bravo clearance and flew just above 3000' AGL.
