With just a few hours per week of rental income, it can pay for itself. On the downside..."your" airplane is now being flown by other people. Will they keep it clean and baby it like you do? Probably not. You have to set the tone for the school of what your expectations of care are. It can be good, or it can be depressing. It all depends upon what you want and need from the deal.
