I just sent Rick a copy of my current spreadsheet. While it is personal
[cost/expense] information, I'm Ok to share such with anyone that emails
me privately. Everyone's perspective on what expense to include/exclude
is different; I don't want to make any more of a science project of
analyzing costs than I already have. Plus, looking too much at the
expense end of things is never fun <grin>.
On another tab in my spreadsheet I keep entries that mirror those of my
logbook. I've heard too many stories of folks that lose their paper
logbook and can't recreate the #'s.

Ted,
I am curious about the breakdown. If your comfortable sharing, could
you tell me (us) what percentage is fuel, insurance, etc. The big
categories.

Av gas. I push it to the runway by hand to keep the gas costs down.
. I also fly from an airport that probably has some of the least
expensive gas in the country on any given day. Some days there are 6
or
8 planes lined up to get fuel that fly in from other nearby airports.

Hmmm. I've always made it a point to keep no records at all, that
could
possibly be interpreted as operating costs, for any aircraft that I've
owned. I just keep telling folks that it's not nearly as bad as it's
made out to be.
Further, to be honest, I'm surprised that Ted's number isn't higher.
Are you burning Mogas or Avgas, Ted?

For what it's worth, I keep meticulous records for every imaginable
expense related to my Murphy Moose. Thus far I have a total of 220.6
hours on the Moose with operating costs running $115.55 (US) per
