I kind of like your way of thinking.
Perhaps your example is an alternative for wanabee pilots thinking of an alternative to an FTO.
1. Find lets say 6 trainee pilots who want to "invest £75k" in their training
should give around £450K
2. Buy a brand new Twin for around £200K
3. Employ a suitably qualified Instructor to train all of you.
4. Pay for fuel and insurance with whats left over
Once qualified you still own 1/6th of a 2 year old twin!!
Maybe start Instructing with it to stay current!
