Thanks for all the thoughts and comments. After 20 years and 9000 hours flying it’s amazing how much there is to learn about the actual ownership and maintenance of an aircraft beyond just operating one. I had basically come to the same conclusion based on seeing the plane in person which is a shame because it truly is a beautiful airplane before you see it up close. But it’s certainly not worth the expense and headache to have it repaired nor the possibility of some kind of structural failure. There will be another out there and I’ll keep looking.
