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 — 387 hrs total time across ~22 years. A rule of thumb, not a guarantee.

≈18 hrs/yrLow time

Low-time for its age

This airframe has averaged about 18 hrs/year over ~22 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.

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

$1,899/mo$22,790/yr

≈ $228 per flight hour at 100 hrs/yr — flying fewer hours raises this (fixed costs spread over fewer hours)

$79,000 to buy (the asking price)

At 100 hrs/yr, renting at $150/hr would be $7,790 cheaper annually — fly more to see ownership savings.

Ownership	Buy-in	Monthly	Annual
Full ownership (sole)	$79,000	$1,899/mo	$22,790/yr
1/2 share	$39,500	$1,450/mo	$17,395/yr
1/3 share	$26,333	$1,300/mo	$15,597/yr
1/4 share	$19,750	$1,225/mo	$14,698/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.
