    I’d like to know where he is getting a 150 for that price the cheapest I have been able to find a 150 in the Oklahoma city area is the one at Chickasha Wings which goes for $105 an hour wet. That is the cheapest I have been able to find for any aircraft in my area. The engineers flight club rents their C172 for $45 an hour dry but you have a $750 application fee $250 dollar deposit and $135 dollars a month club fees. I would love to fly more but I just can’t afford it.
