Martin,
I'm glad you are happy: the people make the difference. All the difference in the world. I could have leased my plane, but I met the people who'd be flying it!
A flying club -- eight guys already leasing a Cherokee 180 -- wanted to lease my 150 to give their club a lower-cost flying option. I attended their meeting. I heard them out. But one member remarked how it would be fun to go up and fly a 150 backwards. (Huh? Fly in windspeed higher than minimum controllable airspeed? IN MY PLANE?) I told them I'd think things over, and I later got back to them with a polite refusal. But they lost their chance right there.
