Airplanes are sure expensive to own

My plane is currently in for its annual inspection. So far it's passed the compression test so that's good. But I have a few things I want done so I'm looking at 3k or more if nothing is found.

I've spent in the six figures the last three years owning the plane, it cost over $1000 per month if I don't fly it. This is not good for my retirement budget. I sure hope nothing is found, but I do want everything checked, safety first.

I remember when I thought Porshe parts were high. Now I worry about $40k engine overhauls and $20k radios.

I may have to rethink on buying a boat.
