    Labor shortages are annoying.

    I dropped the plane off for its annual August 27 for its August 29 appointment for its annual. Usually, we get the plane back in two weeks. But this time, they are still not finished due to lack of mechanics. Ugh. We were told last week they hoped to have it finished this week. Fall break...
