MPD Unfair?

Nope it is only for the Bonanza. Instructor is an additional 58 per hour. Warrior is 135 now.

Hmmm. It was under $180 less than 2 years ago... seems like $70/hr increase in 2 years is a bit excessive.

If anyone ever told you flying was cheap, they were lying! I know that that seems like a lot to pay, but get used to it. Such is aviation.

For a -35/36, that's about right. There is a V-35 here for $165 without an instructor. Throw in the instructor... newer airplane... Heck, gas alone is probably about $60/hour or more. Add in insurance for a complex airplane(a real biggy- I just paid my annual fee for my 8KCAB), maintenance, airplane payment, property taxes, airport fees, hanger fees...

Not referring to the cost of the specific airplane, but there is no legitimate reason to fly an airplane that costs so much for training.

Four Corneres has so much to offer. Like a Welcome Committee that unloads your possessions from your pickup in WalMart's parking lot.
