At Wally's Evergreen Airport in Vancouver, WA, you may rent:

75hp Taylorcraft for $12.00/(clock)hour

C150 for $20.00/hour

C172 for $23.00/hour

Cherokee 140 for $23.00/hour

WACO (I don't know the model, but it's a big radial engined
biplane) for $35.00/(clock)hour

and he'll instruct for $10.00/hour!

Wally is about 75 years old, and has owned his airport for many years.
He really wants to promote flying and encourage students to learn by
making it afordable.  I've run into many pilots who learned to fly in
that same T-craft.


I'm sure that it's Wally's influence that keeps the prices low at 
the other businesses at Evergreen.  I fly at Mill Plain Flying
Service, and pay:

$12.00/(clock)hour for a Champ

$21.00 for 150's

$12.00 for instruction, advanced instruction costs $15.00.

Happy Flying!
