Scheduling is, in theory, more complex than with a single-owner
aircraft. But as the number of aircraft in the fleet goes up, this
becomes less of an issue.

That depends on how the club is structured. Not all are as you describe
above.

Not all clubs are like this, true. But are not all clubs with members as
owners like this? I admit I don't know of all clubs laugh, but how
could owners not have at least a voice on such matters?

I am not a part-owner in either of the two clubs of which I am a member.
I simply rent the aircraft. All of the aircraft are lease-backs in one
club and the club is incorporated and the corporation owns the other.
There are nine airplanes in the one club and one in the other.
