MM My mechanic's rate for a 150 owner assisted annual is $300. But since he charges me travel from his home airport ($90) and we usually take care of some repair items (it was a seat rail last year), the bill is always a bit more. This year we will do bushings on the pilot side rudder pedals. Reg

These do not include supplies such oil, ELT battery etc but still, not bad. Of course, I felt obliged to give a generous tip for such a bargain price. Last edited by Bill_Davis; 11/10/10 02:48 AM.

Bill, It might be worth it for me to fly to your A&P every year! Wow....what's the secret here? MM Mike Marra 1977 C-150M N714AJ Carlisle, PA.

Annual inspection and repair are two seperate actions... and can be performed at two separate facilities by separate mechanics. A fact that can come in handy when you don't like the estimate from the first mechanic. [Linked Image] http://g-awaw.org/
