Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Minimum 20k for an 40 year old Cessna 150 with not many miles left in the engine before mandatory overhaul (roughly every 10,000 hours of use, though it depends on the engine), last I checked.
Then those things require regular mechanical check-ups, and by regular I mean every 50 hours of flight, then a more thorough one every 100 hours of flight and so on.
It's only a "cheap" hobby if you're doing it as an amateur pilot who can also do the mechanical stuff and only flies in a country where regulations are de facto optional to follow.
Otherwise it's at best a hobby for doctors, finance traders and high paid lawyers, not Common Joe.
Overhaul period for a Lycoming piston engine is typically 1800-2200 hours. You'd be lucky if the engine even made it to 10k.
