I've considered the same thing but if you want a partner you'll have to wait about 29 months. If 4 or 5 people get a single engine plane and graduate to a ME AC then I think there would be a substantial savings so long as an educated purchase was made. Wouldn't want an AC that required maintenance above and beyond the normal upkeep maintenance.
