Whether it’s our birthday or Christmas, we airplane owners are a troublesome lot to shop for. When asked for gift ideas, we immediately rattle off specific, specialized parts that require serial numbers to order and are probably on backorder. When pressed, we’ll provide dreamy descriptions of various avionics, engines, propellers, and other upgrades well into the five-figure price range.
This is problematic for our loved ones. They want to find something special and unique, something that compliments the hobby we love so dearly. But the likelihood of finding a reasonably-priced gift that we’ll actually enjoy can be frustratingly low.
