Considering that even a modest plane costs as much as a house,


While it is true that one can find houses for $50,000, they generally
aren't much larger than a modest plane.


From my perspective the cost of an aircraft is related as the purpose you
have in mind. If your desired aircraft is to avoid the hassle of commercial
air travel, then the cost is in the millions. On the other hand, if the
purpose is the simply challenge and enjoyment of flying is isn't much more
expensive the a good modern snowmobile.

For me, it is the challenge; and, joy of flying and maintaining/improving my
bird. ( I have long ago abandoned the idea of using a an aircraft for
transportation.) I have left the "power community" and focused on soaring.
I fly 40 year old homebuilt technology and find pleasure in every minute I
am in the air.
