There are certainly a lot out there, and many that have lower operating costs. One of the best solutions of course is to contact a local Vets Home/Hospital. We have two in our area that are probably always in need of something, and at some point I'd like to work something out with them to have some of the occupants come to local fun fly/giant scale events, especially the warbird ones. One club I belong to is right behind a senior living complex ( a high end one at that) and sometimes they come down, or have friends visit and come down and see the warbirds of all types. They gravitate to those and at least a few times a month we here "I used to fly that plane", or something to that effect.
