"how many people would contemplate sharing their car with a group of others?"
How many people keep their car miles away from their house? How many people keep their plane at their house?
How many people use their car every day? How many people use their plane every day?
How many people just hop in their plane, without checking wx and notams, booking out with ATC and going through security?
Has anyone ever had an aircraft annual done for the same cost as a car service + MOT?
You don't want a group of bar buddies. You want people who will usually use it at different times, and can't afford to use it too much. I'm the second longest time in our group, at over 21 years.
