So what would those costs be per hour if you owned it by yourself?


That's pretty easy to figure, since the three of us fly the plane roughly
the same number of hours each year on average.

Of the $105/hr total, about $50 covers direct operating costs (fuel, oil,
engine/prop reserve). The remaining $55 would be tripled if I owned the
plane myself and flew the same number of hours I do now. Total per hour
costs would then be $215/hr -- more than twice as much.
