Hey all, first post after creeping for years. I was wanting to garner a few opinions as to the availability of aircraft that aren't owned by me. I do not have a mooney but there will be one in my future. I am at 110hrs currently and I would like to get up in the air a little more than what I am doing at the moment. I am part of a flight club but they do not have what I am looking for in aircraft selection and its getting a little crowded to boot. I was wondering if anyone in or around Fort Worth may be interested in renting their aircraft. I know its not something many owners are particularly interested especially since I do need transition training and endorsements (I have instructors for that). Ideally I would like to find someone that has a bird which is being underutilized that I could have access to. After that initial transition training I would like to fly maybe just a few hours a month here and there, mainly just to go up in general for a few hours or with family and friends without having to schedule 3 weeks out and hope the plane isn't down for maintenance or pray the weather is good at that time. I am not looking for a partnership as I am starting a commercial pilot course in August, gotta make the VA pay for something ;-). I also have my own insurance which I will update. I've been around aviation for many years and have owned, maintained and restored multiple aircraft so I know my way around them. If anyone knows anyone or can offer some insights that would be super cool.
