Interesting. Our club is just the opposite. Our airplanes (7) are not heavily
used during the week. We would be very happy to have a short-term member who
wanted to fly a lot, especially during the week. As to abuse, nobody wants that
but I didn't infer from the original post that it was the intention.

In a previous article, said:
you investigate flying clubs in whatever area you find for your multi time.
They are typically 1/3 cheaper than rentals and with better, cleaner,
airplanes.
But you will want to look carefully at buy-in prices, monthly dues, etc.
I don't know about other clubs, but if you showed up at our meetings and
said you expected to fly every day for a few months and then quit, we'd
would not accept your application. We want people who want to belong to a
club, not abuse our planes and then leave.
