Airplanista 🇺🇦<p>Today I bought 5 Quick Pick lottery tickets for the $1 BILLION Powerball drawing tomorrow. </p><p>Made me think what I'd do with the roughly $250 MILLION in cash (after lump sum and taxes).</p><p>Here's a clue:</p><p>Around Y2K, I started the Welcome Sky Aviation Scholarship Program at my small aviation club in Fresno.

Airplanista 🇺🇦<p>For some reason, I ended up over on Controller just now looking at what 1963 Piper Cherokee 235s are going for today. I sold mine in 2016 for $45K. Most are now in the range of $100K with basic avionics up to $150K for lots of Garmin upgrades in the panel.</p><p>One thing that struck me was why most of the sellers didn't show pics of the engine. Isn't that sort of an important component?</p><p>When I sold mine, I led with this photo because I was damn proud of how clean the 0-540 was.</p><p><a href="https://squawk.mytransponder.com/tags/avgeeks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>avgeeks</span></a> <a href="https://squawk.mytransponder.com/tags/aviation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>aviation</span></a></p>
