Typical utilization

This airframe has averaged about 73 hrs/year over ~22 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.

Annual inspection current through Jul 2027

The listing states the next annual is due Jul 2027 — roughly 11 months of inspection time remaining. Budget ~$2,500 for the annual when it comes due.

Damage history

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

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.

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.

At 100 hrs/yr, renting at $150/hr would be $9,995 cheaper annually — fly more to see ownership savings.

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.
