How are all y'all planning for engine rebuilds? Are you banking a bit per hour or do you do something different? I have been planning in bit of cash for the engine and prop overhauls from the hourly, but I'm wondering if refinancing the plane to include the overhauls when they come due may be a better option...Thoughts? I should say that banking the money before hand is really the safest option considering rates and bank interest in your concept may change then you are out. But its something to keep in mind if the time comes sooner than we are thinking.

Hey Guys. This is a Cessna 172 I am advertising for lease now. Just wanted to give you an example of how I do it. It’s all about the content and being different than the traditional facebook post. Are you a flight school turning away more students than you’re keeping? Do you have more CFIs than airplanes? Could you add a revenue-producing trainer tomorrow if you didn’t need the upfront capital to buy one? Good. I built Aviation Ape for exactly this.
