If limited your club/coownership/corp to 5 members or less, and each member
is listed as a named insured, then the insurance is about the same as
private ownership, and based on the lowest time owner.

The sixth owner caused the 3X increase.

Mitch - at least that's what they told me about 2 years ago...

Wouldn't this involve far higher insurance costs than private ownership
or
even a partnership? How it would compare to something on lease-back,
I've
no idea.

Once you have a policy that lets random people fly the plane the insurance
is
going to triple over owner-flown aircraft. It depends how this shared
across
all the club members and the other savings as to whether it is going to
save money.
