You also have to be aware that it could be a quite different experience to that which you have.

Arrive at airfield, open hangar and get your 'share' out.
Do all paperwork required, lock hangar and go fly.
May be no radio at airfield, so sort out runway/QNH etc
Return to airfield. Open hangar. Refuel aircraft. Clean aircraft. Put it away.
Paperwork and lock hangar/clubhouse.

A group may also have a 'washing rota', club meetings etc.

It takes a bit longer than renting - turn up and fly - but much more flexible if you get the right group.
