Sounds nice. Why didn't the other owners use the plane much?
Because people are often poor estimators of time. In the case of partners/flying club members in aircraft, pilots are often high-achieving, hard-working folks who lead busy lives. I call them "doers". Doers *think* they're gonna fly every other day, just like they think they can (and often do) accomplish anything, so they get involved in owning an airplane -- only to discover that their lives are already full. So, flying becomes something they can only do as time permits -- and there isn't a lot of unused time in a doers life. So, the planes tend to sit a lot. It's a sweet deal if you have more available time than the other partners. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 Ercoupe N94856 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
