That all depends one how the partnership is structured, and how willing the partners are to cough up money when needed. Remember that the basic unit of money in aviation is $1000. If you are going to do much flying, renting is just paying someone else a profit for your use of the plane. Would you

So if a person is intent on getting their license and will actually fly afterwards, are they better off buying a plane or a share of one, or just renting when they want to fly?  It would seem if 2 or 3 people bought in it would be cheaper.  Or go the flying club route. On 3/23/2018 11:15 AM,
