omega708 Posted July 25, 2012 Report Posted July 25, 2012 I've been looking to step up from my '67 C model to a F or J model with newer avionics as well. I thought I'd found a good match and was just starting to talk numbers when I found out that an anticipated (and highly profitable) contract had fallen through for my business. Nothing that will decrease our standard income, just a missed opportunity. That being said, I may just sell my motorcycle and do some minor upgrades to ol'9638M... I sure was looking forward to the extra speed, rear seat leg room, and an updated panel. Back to saving pennies and being thankful that I'm gainfully employed!

KSMooniac Posted July 26, 2012 Report Posted July 26, 2012 It was actually a paint job on the very first Ovation, but I don't believe it was ever offered on regular production planes. Obviously it has been copied once or twice...presumably by other proud Texans like me! I like it, and had it on my computer background while working at Lancair for a while. :-)
