I appreciate your suggestion. I’ll check that one out.

My airplane is currently in for the annual inspection. I have lost my on field maintenance facility that I have been working with for nearly 30 years and they have done all 22 years of maintenance on my C337. I flew the airplane to an airport away from my home airport for the inspection where one of my technicians opened his own shop. The rest of the folks have dispersed including some leaving aviation all together. My primary IA who’s been with me since day one is to begin part time work (as I understand it) at another facility on my home field however that shop caters to the “big iron” and scheduling is more than a year in advance. Not a viable option as I see it. He’s nearing his retirement as well.

So, if/when my plane returns from the annual inspection (they’re quite backed up and short on staffing), I’ll have a year to figure out how to retire my airplane. Continued operation does not seem practical in the maintenance world we live in. 😞

Any and all suggestions will be appreciated.
