Just completed the annual on my 76P. Like Jerry, I have AC and spoilers.
The base inspection cost was $2500.00. Additional items were a set of O rings for the left brakes, a new set brake hoses and the standard oil and oil filter changes plus and ELT battery. So well south of $3K. The aircraft is in good condition and maintained throughout the year.
XPDR and Pitot Static were done last year, and will be due next year so that will bump the cost up.
Since the last annual, I have spent just under 1K to replace the AC compressor and service the system, most of which was labor. The previous compressor had lasted over 20 years. I am in South Florida. Really need the AC...
I also spent $500 to troubleshoot panel lights. Again most of it was labor. The issue was a bad diode.
So my total for the year is around 4.5K. I have had no issues with the turbos or pressurization. I pull the full 3.35 differential. And they make flying a lot nicer...
this being said, an aircraft that has not be maintained properly in the past will cost a significant amount to bring it to a good standard. The numbers you quote may relate to such an aircraft.
