But Mike, you had multiple people participating in the cost of the
430, and multiple people using it. Your share wasn't anywhere near
the $12K, was it? It really becomes an issue of cost-effectiveness.
For a group, it was very cost-effective. And as a "part" of the
group, it will definitely be easier for you to sell a share of
the costs than the entire chunk.

This is a big advantage of 3 or more people owing an aircraft - with
shared costs, you can do more. But for a single owner, that
$12K is a cost that can be overwhelming and serious consideration.
