Piper cherokee 180 owner Anthony recently purchased the airplane during the pandemic in order to get is pilots license. Most as you know go through renting an aircraft to pursue their flying dream. But because Antony plans to get all of his ratings including being a flight instructor, He's made the push to simply buy an aircraft outright.
Personally I think if you can afford to by a plane for your training, Do it! many of you who knew about my flight training, it got so expensive and although i was happy to become a pilot, I wish i had an airplane in the end. That's one of the big benefit of training in your own aircraft. You still have a plane even after you've gotten your pilots certificate.
Anthony plans to keep flying his new plane with a local flight instructor until he passes his checkride and becomes a pilot. The plane he bough by the way is a Piper cherokee 180.

The most economical way to fly is to join a flying club. Airplane rental may seem expensive to the tune of $100-$150/hour, but you don't have to pay through the nose for annual inspection, repairs, and other maintenance. All of these will be on top of paying the monthly loans on your airplane purchase. Also, aircraft insurance is getting very expensive if you have less than 250hours. So if you are new, join the flight club.
@benderandownz
@benderandownz 2 года назад
@@2Phast4Rocket the only issue is, the clubs around my area don't allow you to have a plane checked out for more than a day or two so you can't go on some trips.

@@benderandownz Exactly, my flight club is a member own cooperative (we all buy in). There are a ton of planes compared to most places and they are still nearly all booked, you can not just show up on a sunny day and go, you might get the plane for a few hours but someone else has it right in the middle of the day so long XC are out, taking more than 2 nights is out, etc. etc. I had been working on my instrument on and off for several years. Finally just went to a 10d intensive in AZ. I flew for 20+ hrs and got about 20hrs in the sim. That's more flying then I do for the whole year some time. And it was beyond fun. Then back home and back to trying to rent. If money is a limitation this is not the hobby for you :) I can afford to own, yeah it makes no financial sense. BUT I want the ability to go flying whenever I want, for as long as I want, to where ever I want. Having a partner could be cool to keep the plane flying and decrease costs, but this is suppose to be about freedom!

Just had the exact same experience as you. Had zero hours of flight time when I bought a Cherokee 140 for my son and I to begin our PPL training. Flew the plane back 4 hours from Missouri and logged my first 4 hours of flight time. Fast-forward a little over a year and both my son and I have our PPL's and he is now at the Air Force Academy. Meanwhile I am a loving life and flying all over the place! 👍🙂 Good luck to you and hope to hear status updates in the future.

Great video! Something to think about…. I purchased my airplane (Debonair) about 20 hours after getting my PPL. Now doing IFR in it. You often hear “save money and buy before you train.” But they leave it there. Seeing that you are an audit professional, you are the perfect guy to do a follow up video after you receive your PPL and explain “these are the real numbers on what the cost differences are.” Good luck in your PPL and future ratings!

@azcharlie2009 2 года назад
I bought an airplane right after I got my license. I didn't want to rent, or join a club. I started keeping track of my costs and soon found out it was way to expensive to justify. But, I loved the fact that I could go to the airport when I wanted and fly when I wanted. You can't place a value on that.

I think one of the hardest things is finding the right CFI. My experience with my discovery flight was that the school grabbed the youngest least experienced green instructor for me. As an older person, it just didn’t click. I really don’t want to go back because they treated me as a second thought.
@michaelb.8953
@michaelb.8953 2 года назад
I get exactly what you're saying. Last year I went to a flight school that I've never been to after being out of flying for 13 years and was a low time private pilot to begin with at 100 hours. I'm in my early 50's and they paired me up with a young kid flight instructor because he didn't have many students and he couldn't have been much older than 22 years old. I only flew with him for two flight hours and we just didn't click. Some of it could have been me as I just couldn't take him seriously as he was around the same age as my own kids and some it was him as I think he was a really good pilot, but he had really bad teaching skills. After I finished the second hour with him I was so disgusted with him I never went back to that school. I could have asked for another flight instructor, but they were all booked up.

If you're going to buy an airplane, buy it early in the training like I did. That way your CFI can teach you in the plane you intend to fly, and your lessons are cheaper. There was a guy that went through pilot training in a Cessna, got his license, bought himself a reasonably high performance airplane and ended up spin-crashing it while trying to do a go-around in the airport that I fly out of a few years back. This illuminates why it's CRITICAL that you spend plenty of time with your CFI in the plane you intend to fly- might as well also have that time go towards your certificate. Furthermore, when I started taking lessons in my plane, a $300 lesson suddenly became a $120 lesson, and I was always able to pre-flight the plane before the lesson (unlike rentals which are likely still flying with someone else before your lesson); I don't spend lesson time doing pre-flight. Having your own plane as a student-pilot is an all-around win.

Anthony: You're approaching this in the most economical way possible. And, you're building a bond with the airplane - YOUR airplane that will be taking you through your certificates and ratings. BTW, it looks well taken care of - inside and out. Analog instruments are proven, although capable repair technicians are few. If you do keep your 180, you may want to look into "drop-in" replacements that fit in existing 3-inch mounting holes. Nice presentation - thanks for sharing. Well wishes for your pilot endeavors going forward.

On finding a good instructor: You should know what you are going to learn every hour before you go up. An hour at the table for every hour behind the yoke. Table time is cheaper than fuel burn. Don't waste your instructor money with someone who just wants to bore holes through the sky to build their own log book. BTW, the PA28-180 is a great choice. ATP737 ret. 5,000hr CFI 20,000hr TT
