Retirement plans are nice. But have you seen the price of avgas? ✈️💸
Some people dream of retiring early, lounging on a beach, and watching their investments grow. Pilots? We're just hoping there's enough left in the account for another hundred-dollar hamburger... which, let's face it, hasn't cost a hundred dollars in years.
401(k)? More like 172(k). And that's before the annual inspection.
Introducing Flying Over Retirement, part of The Flying Over Collection by Taxiway Tees.
A clever, minimalist rebus design that perfectly captures the financial priorities of people who would rather collect flight hours than watch their retirement accounts grow.
Because let's be fair: Airplanes might not appreciate in value, but the memories you make flying them certainly do.
Whether you're a student pilot whose retirement contributions have mysteriously turned into flight lessons, an aircraft owner who considers a new avionics upgrade a perfectly reasonable financial decision, or a seasoned aviator who's decided the best retirement plan is simply to keep flying, this shirt speaks your language.
Why You'll Love It:
- ✈️ Clever aviation humor — A minimalist visual joke about what happens when your passion for flying takes priority over your retirement savings.
- 💸 Financial planning, pilot style — Because the only thing climbing faster than your altitude is the cost of aircraft ownership.
- 🛩️ Clean, minimalist design — Understated typography with a healthy dose of aviation sarcasm.
- 😎 For pilots who know better... and fly anyway — Perfect for student pilots, aircraft owners, flight instructors, and longtime aviation enthusiasts.
- 🎁 A great gift — Ideal for the pilot who insists an airplane is a retirement investment, the friend who's always upgrading their panel, or anyone who's traded financial security for a lifetime of unforgettable flights.
The Flying Over Collection
Life is full of priorities. We just happen to put flying above most of them.
From savings accounts and retirement plans to meetings and everyday responsibilities, The Flying Over Collectioncelebrates the things we'd happily leave behind for a little time in the sky.
Because some things are better left below.
Designed for pilots, dreamers, and runway regulars by Taxiway Tees — General Aviation Outfitters.
