Cost to own

Rule-of-thumb estimates — insurance ≈ 1% of price, hangar $7,500/yr, annual inspection $2,500/yr, 100 hrs/yr fuel + oil. Your actual costs will vary.

As a sole owner

$1,883/mo$22,600/yr

≈ $226 per flight hour at 100 hrs/yr — flying fewer hours raises this (fixed costs spread over fewer hours)

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.
