Thanks for the ideas guys.
If you could make some profits from the aircraft like liverbird mentioned, fantastic even without , an average GA aircraft runs at about 10gals per hour, that makes avgas less than $20 an hr. And when you have got sufficient hrs sell the aircraft , one would hope for some where around the same price you bought it for. Say you charged british and Irish pilots $50 an hr for a C172, that profit would cover the owners hr of flying.
