I manage owner/operator Part 91 airplanes for people and operate a flight school. when people ask me for discounts, I say as soon as my discount pilot gets out of the hospital I'll hook you up! That shuts them up fast! There is always a pilot who will say they can do the job cheaper and some owner's will go for that. I always sell safety and only fly for high net worth individuals who primarily want to arrive alive. Usually the cheaper contract pilots will be looking to fly for the highest daily rate and if somethin better is available on a given day, they will leave the guy stranded. that is where you can get back in to the game.
