I about once a month am able to pick up a copy of one of the ad type papers from the next few counties west of me, actually across the state line into Iowa. A 1956 Cessna 172 has been in it off and on for the last year or so, getting cheaper. Finally called on it this evening, it has been out of annual for 3 years, got to talk to owner's wife, not him. It was used as a skydiving plane. They have owned since new, but went out of business after his parents passed away and he took over the farming. I am out of current and so is the plane, but we are only 35 miles apart, so maybe both the plane and I can get current together. Down to $8000. Am I crazy to consider this? No radios, will need to update. Does have STOL. 1500 hours since major. DOUG
