Fuel cost et al
Tune in to 126.7 the ulta light boys they are all out there fllying...
GA..................................................
And $2.20 per litre for avgas doesnt help.
heaps of $250,000 toys up for sale for $150,000.
Aging GA pilots failing medicals.
Flight check costs BFR and IFR.
Maintenance of aging aircraft.
And flying a house around if its a new aircraft.
To name a few reasons....
I can think of two Lance pilots here who are grounded and their planes are sold.
I have managed 100 per year since 1980 and did 28 this year...
Plane will run out of time before it runs out of engine hours...
Love to fly cant justify the cost to even fly to nearest VOR and chuck an approach and back costs about $200
To do three t/o and landings about $50
A BFR IFR about $800
