Affordable rentals are no longer available and haven't been in

What is your definition of affordable rental?

Simple. What *I* can afford. YMMV


What is the largest dollar amount you would consider still affordable?


Well, in my case, that dollar amount would have to include the cost of
transportation to and from the nearest airport with rentals. That would be
over a 200 mile round trip for me. Keep in mind, that when I say
affordable I am speaking only as it applies to myself. If LSA rental
planes were available at some of the small airports near me I would probably
find a way to squeeze enough dollars from my budget to satisfy my current
thirst for recreational flying. Unless you live near a major urban area,
LSA rentals are just not available at any price and I can't afford to buy my
own LSA. That's what I mean by affordable.


You are sounding to me like the guy who moved to Kansas then complained there
was no local surf.

Just where do you live?
