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 — 2,070 hrs total time across ~52 years. A rule of thumb, not a guarantee.

≈40 hrs/yrTypical

Typical utilization

This airframe has averaged about 40 hrs/year over ~52 years — in the normal range for a personal aircraft: regularly exercised without being worked hard.

Annual inspection

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

Sep 2025Verify

Annual inspection may be overdue

The listing states the annual was due Sep 2025, about 11 months ago — confirm the aircraft has a current annual, and budget ~$2,500 if it still needs one.

Damage history

Reported in the listing — confirm against the airframe and engine logbooks.

No damage history reportedNone reported

This listing reports no prior damage. That is a positive sign, but the flag reflects the seller’s description, not the logbooks — confirm it during a pre-buy. Undocumented or unrepaired damage is a classic red flag, so have an independent inspector review the airframe and engine records before you commit.

Pre-purchase inspection guide

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

$1,913/mo$22,950/yr

≈ $230 per flight hour at 100 hrs/yr — flying fewer hours raises this (fixed costs spread over fewer hours)

$95,000 to buy (the asking price)

At 100 hrs/yr, renting at $150/hr would be $7,950 cheaper annually — fly more to see ownership savings.

Ownership	Buy-in	Monthly	Annual
Full ownership (sole)	$95,000	$1,913/mo	$22,950/yr
1/2 share	$47,500	$1,456/mo	$17,475/yr
1/3 share	$31,667	$1,304/mo	$15,650/yr
1/4 share	$23,750	$1,228/mo	$14,738/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.
