Goodbye Christine

N44440, an Allegro 2000 SLSA by Fantasy Air USA, was the airplane I learned to fly in, my first solo, my first checkride, my first airplane, the first plane I flew my wife-mother-kids-and the Grandfather gave me a love for aviation in. She soloed countless students, graduated many young eagles, and provided hours of joy to myself, my family, and others. I will miss her dearly and always remember her. Goodbye "4 triple 4 zero"....

I've flown N44440 myself. Sweet bird, as are most of her sisters.

I wish I could keep her but can't afford 2 planes and got a Cherokee Six for the family. I would feel much better putting her in somebody's hands who will take good care of her. If UR interested, let me know. If you have any pics or vids, please post or send them.

I know this airplane from Fantasy Air USA at KTTA Airport, a great machine!

by the way, my girlfriend has a similar picture to 0:47 of her in my normal bird, B-Bar-D's N50631.

I wish could afford her. I'm close to my sport CFI certificate, and I would love to have an allegro of my very own to teach in. I like 44440 because--when I flew her, at least--she was entirely analog. No digital engine monitor. I hate those overgrown digital watches.

Awesome man. Nothing like those light sport planes. Tons of fun. I got the aviation bug from Young Eagles. That is an excellent program! Good luck to you. Blue skies and tailwinds.
