Biggest problem to pay attention to in partnership is how its structured for outside encumbrance.

(May have misphrased that)

Friend was in a 4 way partnership. One partner got divorced. She got half of his quarter. It got stupid from there. Other three basically had to buy her out to just restore sanity.

Clubs/partnerships are a great way to get back into GA, but you have to choose carefully. I’ve seen folks get really balled up.

I got a 2021 Highlander for the wife. No matter how hard I pull back on the steering wheel, the damn thing just won't take off!

Not a delta guy. But I have a Cessna 182Q. 1980. Absolutely love it. Best all around plane for all sorts of missions. Prices are sky high right now. Maintenance can been pricey . But I have no regrets. I’m sole owner

Default Private plane

I have a Nanchang CJ 6. Great plane for formation and Acro. I am in a Squadron with other CJ6 aircraft. We fly formation and some 1 V 1 flying.

Used to own a C-310R. Ran a little over $500/hr to own. Miss the airplane, but not the headache.

Not a Delta pilot either. I just bought a Stinson 108-2. Stinson's seem like a pretty good value overall. Nice looking taildragger with a 900 lb useful load for around $30k.
