I saw in your logbook you're flying good 'ol HY. I thought they were only charging $55/hour wet for that plane? That's what they had posted on the board last time I was there about a month ago.

Treat her good! I got my private in that plane and still come home to fly it once in awhile.

BTW.... you might recognize my avatar if you walk around the hangar at TTF at bit.
Yeah, it's up to $60/hr wet (probably for fuel?) but still can't beat it anywhere else. Currently the engine is off of it (and has been, for like 3 weeks) for overhaul. I was going to try to take it to Oshkosh, but I didn't realize how busy the plane was. I talked to somebody and they said there's no way to take it for 4 days or whatever because it's booked solid all the time and (I'm assuming) they can't justify letting it go for 4 days and only charging $180/day for the plane.

The 172 is still pretty good deal too. I haven't flown it, or looked inside for that matter...but $80/hr for that, especially what they're charging 15 miles south, can't be beat.

I'm sure if they brought 1-2 more 150s and 1-2 172s online at TTF, they would run DUH out of business...or very close.

I recognize the hangar (only been at TTF once, for the checkout), but I haven't seen the plane...whats the tail number? Do you fly into TOL at all?
