Contest! What's the fastest plane one can legally rent for no more than $200/hour wet? To win, you must find an actual place that will rent the actual plane. It should be somewhere in the US or Canada, and it must be a plane you would trust to fly. To start, here is a Cessna 182 RG at 145 kts for $180/hour. http://www.stcharlesflyingservice.com/a ... ion-rates/

Okay so what do we consider the winning metric?
Is it just fastest plane under $200 or do you get credit for a slightly slower plane that is much cheaper?
