The costs of having a plane sit idle are pretty high.
-Cost to pickle (minimal)
-Insurance
-Hangar
-Loss of investment income from the idle asset.


Insurance on a plane that never leaves the hangar is also minimal.

Jim: You can figure somewhere between 1500$ and 2500$ to do a correct
pickle job on the 172. With it disassembled to minimize space, you
could probably store it in one of the mid sized mini warehouses,
possibly even a climate controlled one. To depickle would be about the
same cost.

If all else fails I would be willing to keep it here in N.E. Tx. and take
good care of it for free. I don't fly much anymore but I could keep it in
good flying shape and you would not have to worry about hanger fees or any
other costs and it is nice weather around here most of the year. It seems
like all of the really bad weather goes around us here in Sulphur Springs
about 100mi's E of Dallas. Just a thought and an offer. All that it would
cost you is to fly it here or I could come get it myself. I no longer have
a plane since I sold my Yankee AA1A and I do so much miss flying. Let me
know if that would work for you.
