I've been thinking about buying a cheap 2 seater plane with IFR capability to get my PP/IFR licenses and building hours toward commercial and CFI. Something like a Cessna 150 or 152. The spreadsheet I've built includes regular maintenance certifications. I know there is a risk that something expensive might break. I'm interested to hear the experiences from people who have gone this route. There is a local flight club that can give me wet hours for $91 in a 172 which is probably pretty good. What do you think?
