Pre-takeoff checklist
Who the heck did I **** off? I sold my old '65 Skyhawk with midtime engine to buy a newer hopefully more reliable '79 Tiger and don't even make it home before swallowing a valve. Then, I sold my old piece of junk 1980 Suzuki GS850L that I've had for 13 years (that had problems, but never stranded me!) to buy a more comfortable and reliable 2000 Honda Magna. On the way to an EAA meeting Friday night it suddenly went dark and the engine quit. Strong rotten egg smell, too. Obviously the battery was fried. Trailered it back to the dealer eventually and they're STILL working on it - apparently it fried most of the electrical system - anything that was on when it died. What's going to go wrong next??
