I’m a lucky pilot dude. I know it and I’m mostly humbled by it. Last month I changed airports where I keep my Seneca. For the last seven years I’ve been very lucky to hangar my airplane at Racine, Wisconsin’s Batten Field (KRAC). I’ve been frustrated by the airports A&P mechanic availability issue and so I moved my airplane to Burlington, Wisconsin (KBUU). This airport has an outstanding A&P shop AND it’s the home of Knots2U! Am I a lucky pilot dude or what? This month I purchased and installed main-gear hub caps, wing bolt covers, upper and lower tail cone and gear fairings. I’m getting ever closer to painting the plane and I want the exterior to really look good when I’m done painting. John Bailey, the owner of Knots2U, looked at a couple of the exterior plastic molded pieces that weren’t in good shape. He had a couple of those pieces removed, sanded and repaired and put back on the plane. He also took off a couple of pieces of molding for which there were no replacement parts and he had molds created for them. In another month I’ll be able to get new molding for around my engines. Way to go, John!
What an outstanding company. Am I a lucky pilot dude to have moved to KBUU or what?

PS. I’m pretty sure that John takes this kind of care with everyone. I really don’t think I’m all that special lol 🙂
