Leaseback

Does anyone know what the current commission rates are for leaseback.
The rates the flight school's take off the top.

Depends on the agreement. The flight school I most often teach at takes
$5 per hour off the top. The owner pays all expenses (including
insurance through the flight school).

There is no standard. What I see around here is 15%. But it can be
anything. I know of a deal where the FBO pays all the costs of the
airplane, then the FBO gets $15 per hour and the owner gets whatever is
left. Now THATS a deal for the owner!! But that one is unusual. The
insurance is a killer. Someone should sell insurance by the hobbs hour
instead of by the month. That would help.

$90/hr for 172. Its the only place in the area below $100/hr for a 172.
However, I'm in California. I understand other places are less
expensive. The planes are older though w/o IFR GPS or autopilots.

Here in CT, most older Warriors and Skyhawks are $95-100 to rent.

The club I belong to has three 172s which rent for $78.50, all three
have IFR panels and moving map gps (KLN-94), only two of the GPSs are
IFR rated though. Oh ... no auto pilots.

You do have to be a member, but it's only $20/month, and that includes
pretty good insurance coverage. It is about 20 minutes from the
Sacramento area, but worth the drive in my opinion.

I don't know if they would be interested in lease-backs...

FYI.

The flight school at my local airport is so desperate for a new leaseback
aircraft, they will cover insurance, fuel, and maintenance and give the
lessor a negotiable 30% of the rental fee (of $135/hour). This would be a
two year contract only due to the fact that a new aircraft's warranty runs
out after that period.
