If you fly that much you should buy a plane which will bring costs

I fly a Baron in simulation.


No, you don't.


That's about $1.9 million to buy.

No, it isn't.


And I
also fly a 737 and 747;


No, you don't.


those are around $135 million and $280
million, respectively.


No they aren;t.


But you'll have a hard time flying 700 hrs in a year.


No, I don;t.

That is
about 1/2 of all the VMC hours there are in northern Europe.


No, it isn't.



In simulation, I fly in the Great American Southwest,


No you don't.


which is VMC
almost every day of the year.



No, it isn't.



Admittedly, but presumably not very much so. I was giving rough
estimates anyway.


From my standpoint, $132,000 isn't really any better than $250,000.


You're an idiot.



No, but you'll reach the break even point pretty quickly. I find
membership fees equivalent to 1 hour per 3 months or so, negligible
compared to the hours you quote.


Can you fly 747s at the club?




I can! It's a pretty exclusive club, though.

We don't let fjukktards in.
