Aviation oil is expensive enough, not paying an aircraft mechanic's time to do a simple oil change.

true, one of the most expensive aviation oils (aeroshell 15/50 semi-synthetic) is only about 4.50/qrt, most single engine planes take 6-10 quarts.
and most guys i know clean their own plugs every 50 hrs or so.
aircraft ownership does not need to be overly expensive.
learn to fly and buy a plane. they're good investments. |
