43K is definitely only a downpayment on what this bird would cost to buy,
rebuild, insure, fuel and fly.  Not to mention getting any kind of type
rating for it would probably require having gone through military flight
school - and a 6+ year commitment.  Sure would make for an exotic PC flight
simulator, though.  Too bad PCH didn't ring my doorbell yesterday.

Speaking of yesterday, how 'bout them Patriots???  Nice time to be from New
England.
