Is that the dry rate? Seems REALLY low!

These prices are 'wet'. If fuel is purchased off-field we are
reimbursed for the purchase of that fuel at the club rates. Currently
$2.86 for automotive fuel and ~$4 for AVGAS for the 180 h/p 172.

Where's your club?

Helena, MT.

That's awesome. The absolute cheapest here is $75/hr wet for Piper
PA28-140 (Cherokee). At the other airport, the Cessna's are like
$110/hr wet. Same deal for gas reimburse - which sucks if you're
flying somewhere that fuel is $5...

Helena - That's near Missoula, eh? I worked there a couple of years
ago doing contract work for a law firm for a month. I liked there.
I was there in Nov/Dec, and the air was so crisp! I was living in Vegas
at the time, so, it was a welcome change.

Do you need to be mountain rated in that area?
