It's time we calculate the total cost of our abandoned airplane rebuild! As you all know, we bought this 2006 Zodiak 601xl sight unseen from auction after it sat for 8 years for only $16,000. After many long nights and weekends, the airplane is finally airworthy again and flying!! So what's the real total price after all the upgrades/parts/labor costs??
