cj001f Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 and apparently you can get a used Cessna for like 20K. The kicker is the maintenance and upkeep required for a plane. Many $k a year. The annual cost of ownership for a Cessna was on the order of $10k when I researched it. Thats alot of climbing trips. Flying clubs are a cheap way to learn to fly (usually), and allow the less than wealthy semi affordable access to a plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbw1966 Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 Way cheaper to rent the plane when you want to fly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cj001f Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 Way cheaper to rent the plane when you want to fly. If your interest is in flying as recreation, yes. I was looking at flying as a way to access out of the way places on a regular basis (fly to Bishop-Mammoth Ca as an example) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jon Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Becoming a pilot and actually flying after you get your license is exspensive. If you really want to fly there are aerobatic pilots out there that will take you up for a small fee and make you wanna barf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
