How does one go about obtaining an aircraft that can be flown fairly economically about 100 hours per year, carry 4 + bags at least 300nm, and so on and so forth?
Cessna 172N. And after you work out the numbers it's basically close to the rental price for one
but splitting it in between 2 or 3 people helps. But what Nu said, best thing is to get a Sailingfun Applie Ipad and fly mostly when airports are VFR.
I've been researching this a lot.
