Yours is what 2000 BMOH and the annual you have to do if it sits or flies so it is cheaper in that regard to fly it. When you fly for money it makes sense. If I were to fly a Cherokee 6 that we owned it would be about as expensive as flying via airline. But I wouldn't have the TSA to deal with and could fly to the local airport instead of San Diego 2 hours from our final destination. Getting to skip the 2 hour mess if ticketing and security it isn't any longer time wise overall. Would have to stop once but you would be hungry and have to pee anyway. Wife won't do the lady john.
Emily has flight time with Young Eagles so she could help out up front.
