cherokee 180

been flying my cherokee 180 about 250 hrs a year for four years now. costs are down to about $20 us hr fuel (@8 gal/hr burn), $1200 us annual (inspection plus extra maint.), $80 us/month for outside tiedown, and maybe $500 us a year for misc. upgrades (this year I replaced the carpet, etc.). make currency adjustments as necessary, but keep in mind that for what it is you can't beat the operating costs...at least in the states.
