Cost of Owning a Plane?????
I am a first-time poster and aspiring pilot. Before I start working toward my PPL, I would like some insight on how much it costs to own a small, single-engine plane.
I have an idea of the initial cost of a used plane, but am ignorant to the other costs associated with owning a plane such as insurance, maintenence....
I can handle the initial outlay, but not sure about all the extras.
Does anyone on this board own their own plane, and if so can you give me some insight. Your help would be greatly apprciated. Or should I forget about owning because renting is the best way to go??
