I seem to recall a few people talking about OurPLANE a while back. I did a forum search but nothing turned up.

So, has anyone else done any detalied looking into these folks? Decide yes or no? Opinions?

I’m interested in hearing any details, it looks like a possible way someone like me( young family, living in the Bay Area ) might possibly be able to fly a new aircraft like the SR20/22.

As I understand it, OurPlane will be bringing its first aircraft, a Cessna 182T, to PAO on April 28. I have been told–as an “FYI” not a commitment–that they may have an SR22 on line at PAO or SQL in late summer. When that happens I plan to join and try out a low level membership. If satisfied I will likely sell my own plane and go with them full-time.

Typically they don’t appear to have any useful cost numbers on the website. Has anyone filled out the little webform thing and gotten actual numbers associated with this program?

I have seen other stuff like that for Turboprops, seems to work. I am curious about how the availability of the airplanes is, though. For pleasure trips, everyone wants to fly at the weekend: Doesn’t that create a lot of conflicts (i.e. same as in a partnership)?

In the Turboprop share programs that I have seen, the availability of the airplane is normally guaranteed. Do you guys know how they deal with this sort of thing at OURplane?
