Targeting
Your browser sends a privacy signal (GPC), so Targeting is off by default. You can

Your privacy
We take your privacy seriously. Resyrv stores small amounts of information in your
browser - cookies and similar storage - to keep you signed in, keep your account
secure, and remember your preferences. Those essentials are the minimum the site
needs to work.
The rest is your call. Analytics cookies help us understand which pages are useful
and where visitors run into trouble. Targeting cookies let us measure whether our
Facebook and Instagram ads are worth running. We do not sell personal information,
and declining optional cookies never limits what you can do on Resyrv.

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
Clubs fail on math, not enthusiasm.
How many members can one airplane support?
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 high or rates high?
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.
What does Resyrv add once the model works?
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.
