This summary draws on signals shown in detail below — price comps, listing age, maintenance and engine status, and key specs. Read each section for full context. Not an appraisal.

Airframe time

Average over the aircraft's life — 5,895 hrs total time across ~65 years. A rule of thumb, not a guarantee.

≈91 hrs/yrTypical

Typical utilization

This airframe has averaged about 91 hrs/year over ~65 years — in the normal range for a personal aircraft: regularly exercised without being worked hard.

Cost to own

Rule-of-thumb estimates — insurance ≈ 1% of price, hangar $7,500/yr, annual inspection $2,500/yr, fuel + oil at your selected hrs/yr. Your actual costs will vary.

As a sole owner

$1,942/mo$23,300/yr

≈ $233 per flight hour at 100 hrs/yr — flying fewer hours raises this (fixed costs spread over fewer hours)

$130,000 to buy (the asking price)

At 100 hrs/yr, renting at $150/hr would be $8,300 cheaper annually — fly more to see ownership savings.

Ownership	Buy-in	Monthly	Annual
Full ownership (sole)	$130,000	$1,942/mo	$23,300/yr
1/2 share	$65,000	$1,471/mo	$17,650/yr
1/3 share	$43,333	$1,314/mo	$15,767/yr
1/4 share	$32,500	$1,235/mo	$14,825/yr

Buy-in is the asking price split evenly across partners — what you'd each pay to acquire the aircraft (the real figure is negotiated). Fixed costs (insurance, hangar, inspection) split equally by number of partners; fuel/oil is per-pilot since each partner flies their own hours.
