Inflation! iirc in the mid-'80s a Tomahawk was $45/hr wet. I had a brief 
fantasy about buying a 150 but I realized it would cost more like $450/hr 
of time in the air. The engine wasn't quite timed out but TBO was coming 
up fast. 

Good choice. I learned a lot and had some enjoyable times but in the end 
flying wasn't my thing.
