Operational cost for a c172 or a da40.
 

Im currently mooting the idea to buy a da40 for recreational purpose. I've worked out most of the details except for the operational cost. Since this plan would be in India the conditions would be somewhere between arid to semi arid with rainfall twice yearly. I've got a hangar so parking shouldn't be an issue.

For those who are wondering, it's a group of people investing in a aircraft for sole purpose to enjoy the dream of flight. :):):)
