Fellow 'Thrasheristsi (Latin plural)

I am inching closer to the great windshield project.

I am based in Washington DC and trying to get some idea of fair and reasonable (HAHAHAHA) to replace the windshield. (HOHOHO)

The 'Great Book' puts it at 36 hours of labor and suffering.

These days aircraft mechanics feel more expensive than cardiologist.
Maybe I should find a cardiologist to install it, and save a few bucks?

Anyone done one recently?
Is 36 hours about right?

With windows that means about a $5k job all in.

Any shop recommendations near Washington DC / mid-atlantic?
Or within a few hours flight time?
Or at least on the same tectonic plate?

Should I put on my big boy pants and just peel off another $5k?

Muchos gracias
