Re: How DARE they strike!
We have anywhere from new to three year old 172SP's at riddle. 16 of the newest ones they are receiving this summer will be G1000. Its just flat out cost more to maintain them. I really dont find $119 to be that outragous so the equipment they have in them. (Im not bragging BTW, im just using this for the rate/hr info) *end disclaimer*
On that note I wish riddle had some R's to ease the cost more...
Both those models are 160HP IIRC. Im not saying that makes them worse, but it definitly affects the prices. What FBO do you use?desertdog71 said:

The K is 150HP and the M is 160HP
They fly just fine for me. I could care less about a Glass Panel. You go ahead and keep making those lease payments for them. Let me know when you get out of debt also. I'll keep flying these old birds and saving thousands.

Re: How DARE they strike!
ERAU did have R's, although they had the 180 HP motors in them.
5 years ago, ERAU in DAB was charging $65, yes sixty-five dollars per hour for their (new) 172's. These were the R's (w/ 180 hp) and SP's with GPS, etc. etc. The next year they went up to $80, then $105.
Now they are charging $119? WOW. MAPD, a pilot mill, charges $136/hr for their '91 or newer Bonanza's and $30/hr for instruction. Oh, they aren't your typical "trainer" either - 300 hp, 6-seat, HP and complex a/c. Most have HSI's.
I think you're getting ripped, but that's just me.
Riddle tuiton: $ 12,210 per semester = $24,410 per year. In 2003, when I graduated, I paid about $14,000 per YEAR. Still overrated, but at least within the realm of "reasonable" IMO.
San Juan Community College Tution = $420/semester, or $840 per YEAR. LOL!!!
