Then you need to fly a Cub where I go at 57 an hour wet! But still 75
sure beats 100 to 130! Yep 57, it went up a few bucks because of fuel prices

It is indeed a great deal. But note that if you divide the cost of the
Cub into the LSA mentioned, and multiply that times $57, you will
still be north of $100/hr.

I appreciate that all costs don't go up in relation to the purchase
price, but you can't pay for an $80,000 airplane by charging $60 an
hour, which I think was the renter's desired figure.
