Hi Boyce,
I am the new guy, Frank from Australia. Don’t worry about the fuel thing too much. Fuel prices go up, inflation goes up, wages go up (over time!) and then we are back where we were 2 years ago; just the numerical value is higher. One day a can of Coke will be $10 or more it all goes around my friend. If we do run out then shoot, at least you won’t die wondering. My philosophy is, “you can’t take it with you when you go”, or is that…”you’re gone a long time”, no, I’ve got it now…”the person who dies with the most toys wins”!
Scott is lucky, he has had his time in the sun and more power to him. I wish I was in his position to decide because it would mean I have already made it.
Oh and I see this kind of topic change on another list I am with and the thread is totally lost. It takes two seconds to delete the subject and change it to something more appropriate. No big deal, don’t sweat the small stuff.
Ciao,
Frank

Subject: Re: New Guy
Man, you guys are a tough crowd! We went from the topic being "new guy" to downing the aircraft we own, or in my case not own, but wished I owned. I've forgoteen now who the "new guy" is, but congratulations on your acquisition, and I hope someday I can share the excitement of being a L-29 owner.
BTW, I bitched earlier about the cost of flying. There are all levels of aircraft with corresponding cost structures. I'll probably alway be in the lower level. I've come to terms with that. BUT, maybe, just maybe, I can fly my Mustang II, and start a collection of static jet warbirds? That could be cool too!

Since I bought my plane (2000) fuel prices have more than tripled, my income has not.

Come on guys, what kind of a world would we live in if everything went up at the same time? I said, and it was conveniently left out,”wages go up (over time!)”. The reality is that fuel was cheap for a very long time. At least it was down hear in Aus. I now pay about $1.50 a liter for av-gas down here which is about $5.67 per US gallon. How does that compare with av-gas in the ‘States? I don’t know about Jet-A prices…yet!
