It’s his bird, he makes the rules. As minor shareholders (Paul has 55%) we get no say. I can’t complain, I knew what I was signing up for when I handed over my money and signed the contract. For me personally that rule was never a concern because when I decided to go down the share route in order to break even over renting I knew I’d need to fly twice a month as a minimum to break even on an aircraft with similar cruise speed etc. and knowing that any likely abstinences from flying would (as has been recently) only medical related.
You pay your money, you make your choice. When I bought the share I had a choice of two syndicates both at the same airfield, both offering a T67M Firefly (I would have had to commute from Hull to Wickenby) for the next nearest shareoplane) and in the end G-BKTZ, its share being £1000 less, the monthly subs being £45 less and the hourly rate being £15 less than the other aircraft made the choice for me and it has been the correct choice, it is a shame it is coming to an end but hey-ho, time to move on.
