I don't know how you feel about partnerships, but I've found that
I can get a whole lot more boat/plane/glider in a partnership, and this has worked out very, very well for me. The initial capital outlay, the regular payments for tie down/slip/ maintenance, and the management needed to take care of the boat/plane/glider would just be overwhelming for me otherwise. In the boat I have a 2-way, in the plane a 4-way, and in the glider a lease + 6-way. In each case there have been no scheduling conflicts whatsoever. Neither me nor my partners use any of these things more than once a week, for the most part, so it seems to be a great way to share a lightly-used, but expensive, resource. Of course results vary, and I am lucky that I enjoy the company of the partners as much as the equipment, so this is great, and all the details are well spelled out in writing so there is no doubt about what happens if payments are late or an accident occurs. Anyway, it's worked for me. Perhaps it is something that could get you more glider for your money? |
