I hope that you still have some change to buy a POH for the aircraft.
1st. o/h @ 2740h
75h later a cam fail as well as 2 cyl. (valves & rings) and 2 lifters
Engine re-o/h
91h later, while flying, a tooth broke of the gear that connects the crankshaft to the camshaft and the left mag.
On top I had to do the car's head gasket, had 5 car accidents and the conservatory that was started in July is still not finished because they had to build the walls 5 times, the glass panels twice, rain leaked and all had to be dried, the floor is too high and not level, ordered hard wood and got chip wood and now they have to re-plaster part of it because...it is not level.
Other then this life is great
