It does not cost more to rent a C-172, than an Archer at Pan Am.

Incorrect.
Pan Am charges $97/hr for an Archer. Westwind charges $99 for a C-172R, or $101 for a C-172S. Also, don't forget Westwind is currently charging an extra $4 fuel surcharge. Now, you could be talking about maybe renting an old C-172 for $93 an hour with the fuel surcharge, but that wouldn't be a fair compairsion since our Archers are new, with GNS430s and AC. We sold all our old aircraft to places like Westwind, so I can't give you our rate on them anymore.

Damn.....back when I was getting my PVT at Sawyer (at PHX Sky Harbor), a 172 went for $48/hr wet, with no fuel surcharge......
How times have changed.
