Just wanted to share some real world numbers for a Cessna 182RG (non turbo) that I fly in a club.
For the previous year the airplane flew a total of 198 Hours.
Total cost per flying hour for this year was : 150.58 per tach hour. This includes maintenance/engine funds, insurance, hangar, unexpected maintenance and everything related to the its up keep.
This number has greatly varied and has been as low as 118 per tach hour. This year some expensive items came up which drove up the numbers. We expect next fiscal years to be lower than this.
Not bad for a true 4 seater, IFR certified that will cruise at 154 TAS all day long.
