" Just curious since I figure my costs on
the Arrow are running right at 1/2 of what a rental Arrow goes for. "

Didn't you just buy this plane though. I would be really surprised if
the cost of ownership ends up being less than rental. I Mooney costs
about $85/hr to operate and that does not include base annual, tie
down, insurance, taxes, etc, just hourly related costs. A fully loaded
cost would be closer to $150/hr. There are lots of reasons to buy a
plane, but saving money wouldn't likely be one of them.
