I have enjoyed your column in Twin & Turbine over the years, our flying backgrounds being somewhat similar (owner/pilot). I operated a Citation 550 with an exemption for a decade before reluctantly moving on to Lears and now Challengers, and ultimately moved a sizable real estate business into aviation where I have been well rewarded. I envy you your endeavor to fly a Cessna 182 around Australia. My most pleasurable flying of late has been in said same model. After years of flying jets, I find that flying is flying, and smaller aircraft operating unencumbered with arrivals and departures, ATC, FSDO’s has its advantages. I wish you every enjoyment on your adventure.
