It’s no secret that the traffic in Portland can be busy at the best of times. However, if you have the money (and the flying skills!) then you can beat the roads by traveling by air. Whilst not for everyone, you can see why owning your own plane has its perks. Listed on Craigslist, this plane can be yours for a mere $145,000. This is a 1952 170B plane – and as seen in the pictures, it’s been kept in very good condition both inside and out.

According to the add, this has also been fitted with new leather seats, a new exhaust, and a new engine. With this in mind, it’s probably going to run fine for the foreseeable future. It also comes fitted with a lot of luggage space in the back. Of course, one of the main issues with owning a private plane are the running costs, such as keeping it in a hangar.

For those wondering, this plane is located in the Hillsboro area of the city and is seriously a cool-looking plane. However, the sad reality for most of us is that it’s probably just a fantasy and for the time being at least, we’re resigned to traveling by car…which means more queues and waiting around!
