  • Listed today

    Fresh to market — early in the listing cycle

  • Annual may be overdue

    The listing states the annual was due Apr 2025 — confirm the aircraft has a current annual before you commit

  • Mid-time engine

    500 hrs to TBO (29% remaining) — a healthy mid-life engine; factor the ~$1,647/yr overhaul reserve into your budget

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.

Engine Life

Based on 1,200 hrs since overhaul (SMOH) and the published 1,700 hr TBO for the Continental IO-520.

500 hrsto TBO

29% of TBO remaining

18 years to overhaul at its historical pace

500hrs left ÷ this aircraft's ~28 hrs/yr average. A rough projection — your own flying rate will change the timeline.

Engine reserve budget~$1,647/yr · ~$16/hr

Estimated overhaul cost ($28,000) spread over 1,700 hr TBO at 100 hrs/yr — a rule of thumb, not a quote.

Airframe time

Average over the aircraft's life — 2,250 hrs total time across ~79 years. A rule of thumb, not a guarantee.

28 hrs/yrLow time

Low-time for its age

This airframe has averaged about 28 hrs/year over ~79 years — light use for a personal aircraft. Fewer hours can mean lighter wear, but aircraft that sit also risk dried seals, corrosion, and stale fuel-system components. Ask how regularly it's flown and what the recent annual inspections found.

Annual inspection

Required every 12 calendar months. Read off the listing's stated annual-due date — confirm against the logbooks.

Apr 2025Verify

Annual inspection may be overdue

The listing states the annual was due Apr 2025, about 16 months ago — confirm the aircraft has a current annual, and budget ~$2,500 if it still needs one.

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. Engine reserve from the panel above is folded into the split. Your actual costs will vary.

As a sole owner

$2,062/mo$24,747/yr

$247 per flight hour at 100 hrs/yr — flying fewer hours raises this (fixed costs spread over fewer hours)

$110,000 to buy (the asking price)

At 100 hrs/yr, renting at $150/hr would be $9,747 cheaper annually — fly more to see ownership savings.

OwnershipBuy-inMonthlyAnnual
Full ownership (sole)$110,000$2,062/mo$24,747/yr
1/2 share$55,000$1,531/mo$18,374/yr
1/3 share$36,667$1,354/mo$16,249/yr
1/4 share$27,500$1,266/mo$15,187/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, engine reserve) split equally by number of partners; fuel/oil is per-pilot since each partner flies their own hours.
