Pre-takeoff checklist
I have looked through some of the threads on this but would appreciate current comments. My wife has a freind/co worker that is a CIFI CFII 1200+ hours and wants to rent my plane for a few hours to get his friends/family back in the air. He has recently gotten current again (assume 1.25 years without flying as transition from USCG to civilian) and is trying to find access to a plane for some airborne activities again. I am not opposed to letting this guy get a chance to put some hours on my plane (pa-28-181) since I don't get enough on it either. What is the insurance/cost/etc...issues I should understand to make this happen? Please point me to a thread if I have missed it, but just looking for general advice to get the conversation going at first. We plan to fly together soon and see what this guy is really made of in a small plane. I am an ASE and work for a GA company nearby, but don't have a ton of hours in all my years. I have flown (and flown in) this (my) plane for over 30 years since I was a kiddo. It has a great engine (350 hrs) and low (2300) hrs airframe. Panel is not new, just standard IFR with not current IFR GPS from 2001 ish (no map display, just orange text).
