I believe it, I am always amazed at the price of things.

I am once again thinking about buying a plane.  Right now
I am looking at Cessna 140's.  Not sure why I am interested
in that plane, but is seem like an affordable airplane that would
be decent for cross country. I don't mind not going real fast because
I like to look at things. Do you have any experience with them or
any buying tips?

Regards,
John
