View Full Version : Happy/sad at changing your aeroplane?

For a forthcoming feature in Pilot magazine, I am looking for aircraft owners who have sold one aeroplane and bought another (shares will do)... in two categories. Firstly, who did the right thing, secondly, who regret the change. It doesn't matter how recent the story or what the aeroplane. For example, (15 years ago) I sold my Skybolt and bought a Pitts Special. With hindsight the change was for the better, because I didn't really need the second seat in the Skybolt, my fears about the Pitts being hard to land were unfounded, and it was a much better aerobatic aeroplane. Ideally I would like a couple of photographs of the owner with each aircraft, but just a photo of one of the aeroplanes or the owner (for example) will do, or even no photo at all. You can e-mail your story to [email protected] or telephone 01799 544288, but please act quickly: closing date is Friday 20 February.
