too bad you have to sell the MB`s, but life must move on.
most industries/professions change and not always for the better. maybe for those at the top it does.
We don`t fly anymore since I don`t like the way Iam treated in the airports. so the old 123 get`s us there in good style.
I too like your DIY write ups. I will be using your a/c heater removal DIY this coming summer. have plans to make the 85 300D a 240D manual system. looks easy enough  .
your son is not too far north from where we are.

Yes my son lives in downtown SFO on Sacramento street. Just loving it. Walks to work, 25 minutes each way. Not like here, drive hot or cold.
Funny, he used to work in the finance department here at American. I used to ask how work was. ---Now remember this is a kid, who graduated Suma Cum-Laude in 3 years from OSU and an Honors MBA program at UT Dallas with an A average, A- average for his MBA, he was tired of school. His reply to how is work going at American was, "I die just a little bit every day". So now he is very happy where he is. Wonderful people, challenged, and loving it.
Dave
