Probably an age thing, but this would make an awesome party plane for fly-ins:

You’d be a hit at OSH and SunNFun. Install a giant stereo and a kitchen!

But when it comes to little fun planes, I like stick and throttle tandem units.

If it’s going to have a steering wheel, it needs enough space and carrying capacity to take someone with a tent or two and sleeping bags, over the rocks or somewhere south if the borders are open.

Basically road trips above the roads.

Even my dog is sixty pounds and he’s skinny.

That one that can bring popsicles and burritos is nice. Come on power ball.

I don't mean to be a dream crusher but

Lotteries are a particularly nasty tax on people who never took a statistics course.

That makes me sad. But there is good news:

is worth less than my house. And remember, you can live in an airplane, but you can't fly a house.

is going for pennies. Any of you Canucks want to repatriate it? C-registering that would build character!

This looks like fun to me:

While it’s true you can live in an airplane. I don’t think that’s the right one for that mission profile.

You are making me consider moving to France for a while again.

Of course I’m guessing the jet fuel over there is even more expensive than here though, so after buying that baby, I fly it illegally once or twice, then try to re-sell it at a loss to get some pain auchocolate plus a ticket back to my wife’s house.

When we were house hunting I tried to tell my wife we’d be better off getting a PBY for roughly the same money. At the time she wanted to join the yacht club for entirely social reasons and we could have had the best boat in the harbour. Wanna visit her sister in Vancouver? Just fly the house out. Caribbean vacation? Take the house. Look down on the plebs from the comfort of our own home while cruising along to wherever we wanted to be.

To be fair the house we bought doesn’t burn 100LL or leak oil.

Ask Buffalo how much fun it is to restore an old 737.

They could give away this bird and you'd still go broke.
