The price of used 172s has gone through the roof as flight schools snatch them up. My old flying club wound up spending $180,000 to get a 180-HP version in good shape with decent avionics a few months ago. I was amazed.

I was looking at 172's - just for the fun of it... no intention in the slightest of getting one... and noticed that what once was $35,000 is now north of $45,000 - $50,000, and the majority much above that. Wondered if I was imagining what I saw in the past. [animatedimages.org] Imagine a united world. Join the Popular Front for the Reunification of Gondwanaland.

Wondered if I was imagining what I saw in the past. The new Basicmed is bringing a lot of pilots back into aviation and a greater demand for the 172 and 150 as a result. I have noticed in the last six months that both models are gaining value once again. North Georgia
