There is a lot of ml pilots who would love to hire & fly.It is a great idea.I always look for a trike to rent when I am on holiday in Natal,but with no success.I hope when you start other will follow.Good luck.

Time she is a problem. Will still get there, but trying to finish 3 axis instructors at moment. (Now if i could just find a plane to use in the school)
PS
I think trike H&F is awesome concept and I fail to see why there are not more of them, although there are some practical issues. But the fact that they are not really xcountry machines and thus sleep at home most nites lends themselves to higher utilisation that for eg a xcountry machine which goes to coast for eg.
PPS
What sort of rates (insurance?) are you expecting.

Hi RV4ker,
Rates for hire and fly will depend on whether you need to insure or not.I have spoken to various experts but havent rceived any feedback yet. I'll keep everybody posted asap.
Cheers

Hi cutman
I think it might also draw more people to the game. Many are scared off by the perception of continious high cost of ownership and will think different if it is possible to "own" an aerie for a hour or two only when it suits them.
Whereabouts are you? Please keep us in the loop about progress.
