    Subject: Wanted Garmin 196 or 96
    Hello, all you people who got a 396 or 496 for X-mas, it's time to sell me your old Garmin 196. I finished my rv-9a in August and it's a whole lot of fun. Unfortunately long trips by pilotage and dead reckoning are a real hassle. I can't afford the new whiz bang do everything GPS but I do need to move into the current era of navigation. Instead of putting the old GPS in the baggage compartment and flying it all over the US (dead weight) sell it to me, you know you will probably never use it again. If you want to sell me your old 96 or 196 please contact me at: bryanflood@hotmail.com Thanks, Bryan do not archive _________________________________________________________________ >From photos to predictions, The MSN Entertainment Guide to Golden Globes has it all. http://tv.msn.com/tv/globes2007/?icid=nctagline1

    Bill, Saw your photos here <http://www.repucci.com/bill/fuselage_pg3.html>. Do you have any specifics on the brake lines you used? Vendor, Manufacture, Model?
