The whole club economy in seven numbers: members, dues, rates, and costs in - monthly surplus, fleet load against the 8-to-12 rule, and the dues number that actually breaks even, out.
Annualized surplus at this model: $5,568. A healthy club banks a cushion for the year the annual finds something expensive.
+Club economics
The scheduling rule of thumb is 8 to 12 members per airplane. Below 8, dues carry too much of the load; above 12, weekend availability becomes the thing members quit over. Where you sit in that band should match how much your members actually fly.
Dues cover what exists whether anyone flies (hangar, insurance); rates cover what flying consumes (fuel, reserves). Clubs that push fixed costs into the hourly rate punish active members and go broke on inactive ones - the split here keeps each cost with the behavior that causes it.
The model is the easy part - collecting it is the grind. Resyrv invoices dues automatically, meters every flight against the member who flew it, and closes the month with statements, so the treasurer role stops being a burnout position.
Add your aircraft and your rates, then see the schedule, the squawks, and the ledger all work off one record. No card required.
