Flight Times

Do you pay for the time you have the plane? For example, if I go to
Vegas for the weekend, am I charged for having the plane, in addition
to the flight time?

Just curious.

I can't speak for Andrew's organization, but the one I'm in has a policy (in
writing, as it should be) that the minimum rental is one hour per day for
weekdays and two per day for weekends. Taking the airplane for Tues through
Fri would cost a minimum of four hours -- Thurs through Sunday would cost
you six hours. In other words, if you only put five hours on the meter
between Thursday and Sunday, you would have to pay for at least six. If
during the Tues/Fri, on the other hand, you did five hours, you'd pay for
the five hours.

The minimum times at our club is 1hr/day for weekdays and 1.5hr/day for
weekends. However, exceptions are often granted if you make a request. In
the winter month when the aircraft are not flown very often it is easy to
get such an excemption.
