$52 an hour, wet, for a 125 hp Sparrowhawk. Fun little plane, but at that rate, availability is sometimes tough.
 
In IL I used (1995 - 2001) to belong to a club that had a nice 152 for $25 wet. Real nice airplane. But some one broke it and the replacement bird sucked. I think they are currently selling it, but just recently it was running I think in the $40-$45 range.
 
Back in '87 I was able to get one for $36 an hour, wet. What is it these days?

Back in 1975 and 76, the 152 didn't exist. But I could get a C-150 for $13.50 per hour and an instructor for $6.50 per hour for basic and $7.50 for advance instruction.
 

I was making a whole $2.75 per hour working for Sears at the time. I learned to fly before I bought my first car. I took the bus to work, the bus to school and the bus to the airport.
