Research the costs of owning a aircraft, talk to some current owners find out the yearly expenses. It’s the unscheduled and unexpected maintenance that usually sends a lot of flying schools and sole owners to the wall. I know of one flying school that had to sell its Cessna because they didn’t plan for a expensive breakdown and couldn’t afford it.
