I would think you and a partner could buy yourself an Ercoupe, tie it down on the ramp, spend $4k/yr in fixed costs and another $35/hr in operating costs and make ends meet. Who needs 8 more partners? KB

Who needs 8 more partners? KB ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Read carefully - the partnership is for up to 4 people (you probably can't get LSA insurance for more that 4), with a NEW light-sport aircraft (not an 50 year old Ercoupe). The 10 person group is intended to establish a light-sport RENTAL aircraft at a flight school (at no cost to the 10 people). The idea is to build the "critical mass" required to get reluctant flight schools onboard with the sport pilot/light-sport aircraft movement. Thanks for your comments.
