When my father flew in the late 60s and early 70s, he paid $25/ hour
(wet) for a Cherokee 140 as a member of a club ($25/month dues).
He also bought a new 1969 Ford Galaxie 500 for $1900. (2 doors, 302
V-8, foam green with Landau vinyl roof -- sweet)
Of course he was proud to earn $200+/week.
So if he earned $104,000 a year today, the cost of aviation would be
about the same for him.
What's it to you? You don't fly.
