First, I had a few unexpected expenses lately so after paying for those I don't have much in the bank. Strangely, when I checked my bank account today I had exactly $172.00 in checking (not counting savings). 172 is an important number because I have done almost all of my flying in a Cessna 172. Then, at work I made my first official sign-off on a repair of an aircraft. It wasn't just any aircraft though, it was my favorite aircraft in the whole world. It was an Aeronca 7AC Champ that I had the pleasure of flying once last year. It is in immaculate condition and it's just...
...beautiful. To top it all off, it's my birthday today and I'm 27. 27, Cessna 172, $172, Aeronca 7AC. Does this mean something? :-?
