I discussed the possibility of some, or all, of the Flying Instructors getting together and approaching Samson with a view to running a Flying School out of the Club Building, paying Samson a fee for use of the building, and leasing the aircraft from them, with another club member the other day.
We both thought it seemed like a good idea. I was thinking of running it by JC to see what he thought, but haven't got around to it yet.
Seems like it could be a viable proposition if the finances were properly costed and realistic prices were charged.
Similarly, as I think I may have mentioned before...if Samson were approached with an offer of paying a fee to use the AeroClub facilities, would such an offer really be turned down? After all profit is profit.
