Private Aircraft Hire
Posted: Fri Nov 7 2014, 05:45
Hello Bladeslapper's
Long time lurker. Background information, currently completing my PPL with the intention of going on to my CPL. I am not looking for a full time position flying, only flying for enjoyment.
I seek this forum's advice in relation to the private hire of an aircraft:
1) Will anyone allow allow me to hire their aircraft with such minimal experience (be it a school or private ownership). I am more than happy to go through a check flight. I will respect the owner's aircraft and have no intention of flying in a manner that is detrimental to the pilot's of Australia reputation.
2) In terms of aircraft availability, will I struggle to find an owner that has an aircraft that is free for for a full weekend?
These two questions relate to finding owners around this island located far from where I live. Hope this make sense....Dream big, but need to plan to make it happen.
Fly safe......EZ
