Default Reliability and Clubs...

My understanding is that ownership works better, financially, if you "fly
the pants off" the plane. If you don't fly enough, then
renting/partnering/clubing will be *financially* better.



True. But for me, the fact that Atlas is sitting in my hangar, fully
fueled and ready to go at a moment's notice, is absolutely
irresistable. I find it amazing to see how few privately owned
aircraft fly regularly -- those owners apparently have more will power
than I do!

"Your Aviation Destination"

You have a few advantages some folks don't have.
1. You work very near the airport where you keep your plane (some of us
have to drive over an hour to get to ours)
2. You are self-employed and I assume you can "flex" your hours at times
to match good weather.
3. You are in a two pilot family so there isn't any "You're going flying
again!?!?! You really need to clean the basement".
