As far as I know most are operated as glider tugs and as such will probably have higher service/fuel costs than for more conventional use.
Try your local club and see what they say.. there are engine option factors too.
It is nice to fly without a glider on the back.
Have fun!
Ah yes, I was under the impression that they were cheap to run and, as such, gliding clubs loved them? The place I'm looking in to is actually a gliding club who only operate part time and will be hiring the aircraft out when it's not in use. Just wanted to find out whether the costs would be £140 per hour (thus in line with just renting a piper from a flying club) or £70, where it makes sense to buy into a share?
Thank you
