I am so spoiled...I own an airline Coral Reef Airways, have a brand new Piper Seneca 5 parked alongside my Beechjet in my private garage, and receive free flight instruction from the Chief Pilot of my airline.... eek! and then I woke up and realized that 9/11 was real and it drove the cost of flying up by an average of $15-20 bucks while flight instructors all rased their rate by $5-10 bucks.

I was fortunate to earn my private in a 172 at Front Rage Airport in Denver, CO when rates were $40 for the plane and $25 for the instrutor.

Now that I am in Detroit, the cheapest I can find is $50 dry for a Cherokee and $95 dry for a brand new 172...what a bummer...I need to go back to sleep and dream about where I am gonna take my brand new Seneca 5.....ahhhhhhhhh
