Company car

Post by drseti »

For those of you who haven't yet seen my flight school's new company car, here it is. Actually, I blame Designrs. He drove his Porsche up to this year's Sentimental Journey fly-in, and then forced me to drive it - against my will! . Spoiled me forever. Thanks a lot, Richard. :evil:

OK, so it's not an LSA, but it sure does fly!

Actually, Howard, the axiom still holds. All my toys were paid for with earnings saved from a previous life. The standard aviation business plan is simple: decide a priori how much money you want to lose. When you achieve that goal, you quit.

(Apparently, I have yet to achieve that goal...)

Your new company car reminds me a little of my old one.

Very nice! The TT roadster was also on my short list (along with the BMW Z4).

It snows up to 700"+ here on a good year, the TT is all wheel drive and works well unless the snow is deep.

Paul, in aviation if you want to end up with a small fortune, you start out with a large one!

Andy, it is guys like you who let those of us in the business to stay here a while longer. Actually I started in business with almost nothing, so if I can leave with a small fortune I'll be extremely happy.
