Subject: [Biplane(10483)] 2005 Husky on Wipline Amphibs

Gang,
    Big day here.  Last night I got a call from OSH.  I won the EAA
Sweepstakes 2005 Husky A1-B on floats.

http://www.airventure.org/2006/events/sweepstakes.html

    The EAA will issue a 1099 in the amount of $250,000 for the prize
package.  The tax bill seems to be 28%, or $70,000, and is due at delivery.
I can do that, but I'm not so sure I want to tie up the money long term.  My
daughter starts college next week, the house needs a new roof, blah, blah,
blah...

    Some decisions are required.  I'm going to open the floor to offers of
all kinds and see what happens.  Anybody want to buy a new set of Wipline
2100 amphib floats?  Want a 100 hour A1-B, with or without floats?  Want to
trade a nice Model 12 and pay the tax bill?  I also like F-1 Rockets,
RV-8's, the new fixed gear Lancair, and classic cabin airplanes.  Don't care
for conventional spam cans.  Please, no silly proposals.

   Hey, dumb luck is better than no luck at all <g>
