I know I can count on most of my felliow pilots to be........well, pilots. It's a major reason why I expect a complete redeux in 2020 when the majority go for quick $$$. Looking forward to the mayhem and chaos.
Must be an Eagle thing. I drive a 15 y/o pickup and a 25 y/o motorcycle. After years of not being able to afford to pay someone else to do it, three years ago I replaced truck's front wheel bearings and the entire front brake system by myself. I guess I've developed some angst paying someone to do the things I can do myself.
I buy what I need without a second thought but rarely buy what I "want". My wife, on the other hand, does not suffer from this affliction.
