Try Long Beach Flight Centre based at Long Beach airport. They have BRAND NEW aircraft.
C172SP - $110/Hr (just flew one today with 20hrs on the hobbs
)
C182 - $155/Hr (These are fitted with twin Garmin G1000s!!!!)
Absolutely excellent kit at very reasonable prices. They also have the OMF Symphany for $85/hr and an old but reasonably well flying Duchess for $175/Hr
I am going to winch going back to the UK and paying £120/hr for a completely knackered PA28-161 with INOP stickers all over it again........
