Default airport cars

Well, let's see now.

In order to join, I have to provide a car, maintain it, and insure it. To
boot, I pay $50 a year for the privilege of borrowing somebody else's car
that MIGHT be at the airport I'm headed for.

That doesn't really sound like a heck of a deal to me.

Now if it was $250 to join if I DIDN'T have to provide a car or free if I
did, and if part of that $250 was rebated back to me as a function of useage
of my car to help with the maintenance and insurance, it might be a little
more tempting.

I'm no insurance expert, nor do I play one on tv, but it seems to me that
there is a "borrow" clause in my personal insurance policy that if I BORROW
somebody's car and get into an accident that my insurance covers that
vehicle to the extent that it would cover my own car in the same accident.

Flyers,

I was reading my Pilot Getaways Mag this morning and found an article
about something I've been thinking about myself for years.

It is an internet based Airport courtesy car club.
