Engine Life

Based on 997 hrs since overhaul (SMOH) and the published 1,500 hr TBO for the Continental O-470.

503 hrsto TBO

34% of TBO remaining

≈ 6.5 years to overhaul at its historical pace

503hrs left ÷ this aircraft's ~75 hrs/yr average. A rough projection — your own flying rate will change the timeline.

Engine reserve budget~$1,467/yr · ~$15/hr

Estimated overhaul cost ($22,000) spread over 1,500 hr TBO at 100 hrs/yr — a rule of thumb, not a quote.

Airframe time

Average over the aircraft's life — 5,151 hrs total time across ~69 years. A rule of thumb, not a guarantee.

≈75 hrs/yrTypical

Typical utilization

This airframe has averaged about 75 hrs/year over ~69 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. Engine reserve from the panel above is folded into the split. Your actual costs will vary.

As a sole owner

$2,026/mo$24,317/yr

≈ $243 per flight hour at 100 hrs/yr — flying fewer hours raises this (fixed costs spread over fewer hours)

$85,000 to buy (the asking price)

At 100 hrs/yr, renting at $150/hr would be $9,317 cheaper annually — fly more to see ownership savings.

Ownership	Buy-in	Monthly	Annual
Full ownership (sole)	$85,000	$2,026/mo	$24,317/yr
1/2 share	$42,500	$1,513/mo	$18,159/yr
1/3 share	$28,333	$1,342/mo	$16,106/yr
1/4 share	$21,250	$1,257/mo	$15,079/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.
