It's that knowledge of "who landed my plane last" that caused me to buy my
Archer 8 years ago and I have had no regrets though the cost for the 1000 hrs
during that period have cost about $74 per hour on cost alone. BUT I have
added a 430 and a 330 transponder and wingtip lights and secondary air and
maybe some other things that don't come to mind right now. Subtract these
costs and you get about $60 per hour. Not bad for an Archer that is always
waiting for you!

Forgot to figure in the engine and airframe time adjustments that adds adds
about $10k for the 1000 hours making the overall hourly at about $70. Still
not bad.
