For those fortunate enough to have their sights set on fun local flying alone or with one passenger, an entry-level type might be the perfect long-term solution. But for those with visions of long-distance travel or specialized flying, a careful approach to ownership becomes necessary.
THE NEW OWNER Is It Better to Buy Your Last Airplane First? There’s a lot to debate when it comes to buying an airplane for the first time.
by Jason McDowell
B ack when I was going to school and working on my private certificate and instrument raiting, I worked at bike shops to earn money. It was a rewarding job. I got to introduce people to cycling, help them to deter- mine which niche best suited them, educate them on it, and then catch up with them when they returned for accessories or service. One of the most difficult decisions for the vast ma- jority of newcomers was determining whether to test the waters or take the plunge. In other words, whether to buy a less expensive “be- ginner’s” bike to evaluate the sport and see if they fall in love with it or skip a step and buy the more capable setup and more permanent solution right off the bat. Fast forward a couple of decades, and readers regularly ask me for the same ad- vice regarding airplanes. Commonly, prospective buyers initially debate whether to start out with something less expensive and less capable or make a more signif- icant investment, possibly taking a couple of years to save additional money, and buy a type they anticipate will fit their needs perfectly and for the long term. It’s rarely a cut-and-dried solution. Having bought my airplane only two short years ago, I can identify with the con- cerns these owners-to-be describe. Starting out, many of us struggle to accurately
define our mission since we’ve never really had one. As renters, one of the primary missions on most flights is to return the airplane in time so the next renter can use it. Thoroughly evaluating things like long-distance travel, long-term ownership, and off-airport capability was often not practicable or even permitted, given the scheduling and insurance restrictions inherent in rental fleets. As first-time owners, we want something easy to own. One with few pitfalls that could unexpectedly bankrupt us or ground the airplane. But at the same time, we don’t want a “disposable” airplane that we’ll be trying to sell in the first few years to fund the purchase of a more capable machine. So, which option is the best way to go? Testing the waters or diving in headfirst? Let’s explore each option. Testing The Waters Of Ownership With A Simple, Inexpensive Airplane Initially, it might seem as though the basic, bare-bones two-seat option would be an inherently better value. But it’s a double-edged sword. On one hand, most “be- ginner” airplanes like Aeroncas, Ercoupes, and the like are indeed less expensive to purchase. It’s not uncommon (though admittedly becoming less common) to find examples in the mid $20,000 range. But a low purchase price doesn’t necessarily make an airplane a good value. If an owner begins to outgrow such an airplane after only a year or two of owner-

ship, discovering that it comes up short in metrics like range, payload, and speed, the long, often arduous process of listing, selling, shopping, and buying again requires a tremendous amount of time and effort. This should not be overlooked or brushed aside. A year or two slogging through this process is a year or two not flying or enjoying airplane ownership. On the other hand, provided they maintain the airplane in as good or better condition as when they purchased it, the owner is effectively parking their money and can count on re- couping it when they sell. Because airplanes tend to maintain their value or appreciate over time, a short ownership stint with proper care and maintenance should, in theory, pres- ent little financial risk. Sure, they’ll never recoup the money spent on fuel, insurance, and hangar rent, but the purchase price of the airplane is a different story. Because most of us approach ownership with some experi- ence as renters, however, few go into it blind. We generally have an idea of what we like and don’t like in an airplane. Addition- ally, we can join others for rides and obtain instruction in new and unfamiliar types to broaden our horizons. In the grand financial scheme of ownership, it would be inconsequential to travel across the country for a weekend and take an interesting model up with an instructor for an evaluation flight. Chances are, a pilot with some experience like this can make a pretty accurate prediction of what they will and won’t enjoy in an owned airplane. For pilots with this context and under- standing, it’s likely a “beginner” airplane will ultimately serve as an unnecessary stepping stone to what they ultimately want. Provided the financial challenges can be met, buying your last airplane first might be the more prudent approach to long-term ownership. [Photo: Jason McDowell] Diving In Headfirst And Buying Your Last Airplane First Provided the financial aspect of a step up to a more capable type can be managed, there seem to be few instances of pi- lots buying “too much” airplane and later regretting their decision. Whether they splurged on something with a fast cruise speed, additional passenger seats, or off-airport capa- bility, most owners seem to appreciate having capability even if they don’t use it all the time. While it’s wise to buy a type that fits 90 percent of your mission and rent for the remain- ing 10 percent, there’s also something to be said for owning and enjoying an airplane simply for what it is. There’s also the peace of mind that comes from knowing there’s room to grow into an airplane when it comes to capa- bility. I’m a textbook example of this. My Cessna 170 is out- fitted with 29-inch Alaskan Bushwheels, massive handmade tires designed to conquer cantaloupe-sized rocks in the tun- dra. I also have a brand-new McCauley seaplane prop for ad-
ditional thrust on takeoff. But despite the backcountry mods, my typical missions involve grass strips in the Wisconsin countryside, easily accessible in a Cessna 140 or 150. So, while I may indeed define the term “poseur,” I legitimately intend to expand my limits as my experience and skill allow. I treat virtually every flight as a training session, learning my airplane inside and out while carefully pushing my limits in an effort to someday tackle more challenging destinations. In the meantime, I’m really enjoying the process, and there’s lit- tle chance I’ll become bored with my airplane anytime soon. Perhaps the most significant challenge with tackling a more capable type is the steeper learning curve inherent in learning and mastering it. While this is a legitimate concern, it’s one that, in most cases, can be adequately addressed with good, high-quality training. One must simply get involved with the type group, do some networking, and locate an ex- perienced instructor to provide the transition training. Usually, after exploring all of these issues, a buyer is left with sufficient motivation to skip the “beginner” step and buy their last airplane first. Budget tends to be the last re- maining roadblock to this plan. If the buyer is fortunate enough to have a trusted friend or colleague with similar taste, a partnership might be the way to go. A well-structured partnership will provide all the benefits of owning the perfect airplane at half the price and few scheduling conflicts—and the airplane will be flown more regularly, to boot. In Summary The question of whether to start with an entry-level airplane is one that will be debated endlessly. Buyers who only ever dream of bouncing around the patterns at nearby rural strips are fortu- nate that, for them, an “entry-level” airplane happens to be the perfect long-term solution. But for the rest of us, our long-term goals tend to exceed the capabilities of the most basic aircraft. Back in my bike shop days, I had a favorite piece of advice I would offer to new buyers who were wrestling with these issues. I observed that the benefits of a particular machine don’t have to be quantifiable on a spreadsheet, nor are they required to be perfectly logical to be legitimate and real. If there’s some undefinable element that boosts enthusiasm and motivates the owner to get out and enjoy the hobby more of- ten, then it should be pursued and not ignored. And so, once again, the parallels between the bicycle and the airplane remain strong. I suppose Orville and Wilbur would be proud.

In aircraft maintenance, the line between preventative and unscheduled maintenance can often blur.
MAINTAINING YOUR AIRPLANE Servicing Cessna 172 Stuck Exhaust Valves A rough-running engine means it’s time to pop valve covers.
by Richard Scarbrough
R ecently, a GA pilot at Newnan-Coweta County Airport (KCCO) in Georgia pulled a Cessna 172 out of the hangar, ran through a quick preflight inspection, and yelled, “clear prop!” He fired up the aircraft, only to find the Con- tinental O-300-D engine started running rough. That was as far as it went. Mission aborted. The aircraft never left the ground. Aircraft Troubleshooting Cessna 172 owner Corey Sampson reached out to me to discuss the engine running rough and the dark side of maintaining an aircraft: unscheduled maintenance. The first step in the troubleshooting chain was to remove and replace (R&R) the spark plugs, as they were coming due soon. That didn’t help. The next step was to run the engine while idle, using a hand-held laser thermometer, and take the temperature of each cylinder one at a time. One by one, the temperature readout for each cylinder measured 150 to 160 de- grees Fahrenheit. The number 4 cylinder was 95 F. Cylinder number 5 was 159 F, and number 6 was back to around 95 F.
Sampson could now perform preventative maintenance by wearing his owner/ operator hat. Once troubleshooting leads beyond preventative maintenance, it is time to turn around the hat to the A&P side and begin unscheduled maintenance. Unscheduled Aircraft Maintenance There is a trick to relieving pressure off the valves to remove the rocker arm while keeping enough resistance to hold them in place to pop off the rotocoil, keepers (valve locks), and springs. It was time for the rope trick. Checking in with JD Kuti, president of Pinnacle Aircraft Engines in Silverhill, Alabama, I asked him to break down the procedure for me: • Feed rope into the spark plug hole. • Spin the prop until the rope holds the valve in place. • Use the spring compressor tool to remove the keepers and valve springs. I watched a mechanic on the internet try to pry off the valve keepers with a pocket knife. That looked like a good way to get cut to me. Back in my engine shop days, we just popped a magnet against the valve locks, and voilà, you set them free. Kuti mentioned a trick he has used in the past while servicing valve guides: “If you need to drop the valve into the cylinder, tie a piece of floss to the valve through
10 Aircraft For Sale | July 2024
the port. If I’m cleaning a guide, I normally push the valve into the cylinder and pull it out of the bottom spark plug hole to clean the valve stem too.” Kuti said he does not deploy the rope trick any longer, opt- ing to pressurize the cylinder with air while the piston is at the bottom dead center (BDC). Reamer Action Time Sampson removed the spark plugs and fed the rope into place. Driving out the rocker shaft with a brass drift, he re- moved keepers and springs. It was then time to drop the valve. Taking the brass drift, he gently tapped the exhaust valve into the cylinder head. Special reamers like these are just the ticket to clean up the valve guides. Slowly slipping the reamer into the number 6 exhaust guide, the tool moved smoothly for approximately one-half inch, then began to drag. The reaming process is not difficult, but it is imperative to keep the tool aligned so as not to damage the valve guide. Where Kuti held the valve with a thin line, Sampson used mechanical fingers in the top spark plug hole to maneuver the exhaust valve back into place. With a flashlight in the bottom spark plug hole; the valve was visible and could be manipulated toward the guide.
Once in place, a magnet was inserted into the exhaust guide, contacting the tip of the valve stem, and the valve was slowly pulled back into place. Next, the valve springs and keepers were replaced, topped off with a rotocoil or up- per retainer, depending on your setup. In aircraft maintenance, the line between preventative and unscheduled maintenance can often blur. While he had the time and the tooling available, Sampson opted to apply the reamer to all of the remaining cylinders’ exhaust valve guides as a precaution. What causes exhaust valves to stick? “Heat is the primary cause of valve sticking,” according to AVweb. “High temperatures in the exhaust valve guide oxidize oil and form carbon deposits on the valve guide, and these deposits can cause the valve to stick. The most frequent reason for elevated valve temperatures is valve leakage.” Richard Scarbrough is a US Navy Veteran, A&P Mechanic, and Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University alumni. His experience ranges from general and corporate aviation to helicopters, business jets, and commercial airliners. Former owner of a 145 repair station, he currently has an aerospace product management role and is a member of the T-C-Alliance. Follow him on X (Twitter) at @RScarCo.

For those aircraft owners who live the aviation lifestyle, many find themselves dreaming of living with their aircraft and being able to preflight, taxi, and take off to a destination within minutes of leaving the house. Whether it’s a single-day business trip allowing for dinner plans at home to stay intact, or the entire family loading up to visit friends in a neighboring state—living with your airplane unlocks opportunities. For most, living in a fly-in community requires a trade-off between the amenities expected from a master-planned development and those required by an operating airport—to satisfy everyone’s needs in the household—and thus it remains a dream. At its core, The Fields has been developed to solve this dilemma. Designed by pilots and keeping family, friends, and non-aviation residents in mind as a priority, The Fields marries the best of fly-in community living with world-class amenities everyone can enjoy. “We wanted to design a development that has community at its core, allowing for pilots to enjoy the advantages aviation unlocks while focusing on the key aspects that make a new urbanist community attractive,” says Jon Ricketts, partner in The Fields. “This concept is unique to aviation, as other developments don’t cater to the non-aviation spouse or family. We wanted a community that our spouses would be proud to call home and invite their friends to visit.” In addition to the onsite amenities surrounding a 4,300-foot runway, The Fields is strategically located in southeastern Tennessee. The area features a long list of beautiful flying adventures nearby, close proximity to major metropolitan areas, and a tax-friendly state for residents. By pilots, for pilots—The Fields is the new standard for fly-in communities.
