Always the knowledge that should you have an engine problem, the FBO can provide no help. I've never had the engine let me down - now, I screwed up a rebuild and ended up having to rebuild in a abandon garage in the middle of the summer in Louisiana (so I have some empathy for your hangar temps {:>)). But, that was my fault - not the engines. Great seeing you and your spouse, need to have you there with your bird next year!
