I'm in New York City and go out to NJ to fly. It's $130ish for a 172SP, and probably $110 for N/P models! Ouch. Yeah- agree that you have pretty fantastic rates.

Living in the city I have fewer airports / clubs to choose from and have a hard time finding a Cessna 172 for under $125 or anything with wings or an engine for much less than $100.

My club currently has Piper Archers @ $84/hr wet. The difference being that we charge off of the tach meter. So, for long distance flights, it isn't much difference, but if I'm putting a plane into the pattern, I can fly for an hour and am usually charged just under 1/2 hour. Those rates aren’t too bad!
