Had an airline buddy with 3 C172s he operated as a part 91 flight school. Decided it was becoming touch work so put them up for sale. Sold all three to one guy within 3 weeks time. Now can't find a good tail wheel training plane for less than am arm and a leg.

The guy claimed PTSD and said if he had to sit down he would “freak out.” He went for the door and slide with his dog in hand and oddly enough his girlfriend decided to follow.I wouldn't say the dog was a lunatic. He was probably just following his owner.
