Hangar Flying / Economics of buying/owning a Long-EZ?
« on: February 01, 2016, 12:56:25 AM »
New to the group; apologies for the newbie question:
I have long been smitten from afar by the Long-EZ, especially its fuel efficiency and range, and I'm increasingly disenchanted with the cost (fuel and otherwise) of conventional rentals (e.g., C-172). So how would the economics work out for someone who bought a used Long-EZ and who has maybe 3-5 hours of flight time each month? Unfortunately, building isn't in the cards for me at this stage of my life.
