Well, I should've figured...
I found what seemed like a great deal online, spent almost 3 weeks trying to track down a mechanic and schedule some sort of pre-buy inspection in another state, and then today, the day before the inspection is supposed to occur, I get a call from the owner that the plane has sold..... Ugh !
After the call I jumped in the truck and drove up and down the rows at the local airport, looking for any new "For Sale" signs, but there weren't any.
Patience is fleeting... But the search continues !!!

I know this plane and it's owner (as does many others active on this site) and can recommend it to you.
