This weeks installment of "As the 182 turns"

[Bill]

So, as some of you read, last weekend I couldn't fly the plane as someone/something literally tore the starter out of the bird.

So, Saturday night, the mx officer calls (hey, at least he called this time!), and suprise of suprises, the 182 is grounded. Two chaps went flying Saturday morning, and returned the plane squawk free. Next guy goes to preflight, and finds only 3 qts in the crank case, and then notices the other 5 qts on the belly of the plane. Grounded UFN.

Rings?

Boy, I hope that 201 checks out!!!

It really sounds like its time for your own plane, Bill. I've got my fingers crossed for ya!

Thanks for the good thoughts, Nick! I've got my fingers crossed for your situation.

I hope the J gets a clean bill too. At least then when it's broken you'll know who did it.

And who gets to pay...

That's the fun part.
