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 — 7,398 hrs total time across ~62 years. A rule of thumb, not a guarantee.

≈119 hrs/yrTypical

Typical utilization

This airframe has averaged about 119 hrs/year over ~62 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.

May 2026Verify

Annual inspection may be overdue

The listing states the annual was due May 2026, about 5 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. Your actual costs will vary.

As a sole owner

$1,900/mo$22,795/yr

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

$79,500 to buy (the asking price)

At 100 hrs/yr, renting at $150/hr would be $7,795 cheaper annually — fly more to see ownership savings.

Ownership	Buy-in	Monthly	Annual
Full ownership (sole)	$79,500	$1,900/mo	$22,795/yr
1/2 share	$39,750	$1,450/mo	$17,398/yr
1/3 share	$26,500	$1,300/mo	$15,598/yr
1/4 share	$19,875	$1,225/mo	$14,699/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.
