Description
- August 2019, Centennial Airport, KAPA -My favorite airplane, N65251 got a new hangar. I loved the lighting through the door, so I had to take a photo of the world's greatest Cessna 172.
'251 is very special to me. I have over 230 hours in this airplane. I soloed in this airplane. I earned my Private Pilot Certificate, Instrument Rating, Single Engine Commercial Certificate, and Flight Instructor Certification in this airplane.
I flew with '251 for the last time in September of 2019. My flight school closed because the chief pilot fell ill, and the aircraft was sold to a neighboring flight club. I see the familiar Skyhawk occasionally, and I miss this old friend dearly.

I once read a quote by a pilot who said he believed airplanes are not as inanimate as we perceive them to be. To me, sometimes it feels like they know better than we do!
