Block Time Or Rental?

[flyboyz]

I am getting to the point of enjoying my training, that is building some time. Since I am getting close, I am wondering whether or not I should seek out someone to sell me some block time or stay with the school's aircraft?

I have heard others speak of block time and not really sure what all it includes. Would I need to pay the insuyrance or does the owner cover that?

It is a tough time already saving money so any little bit helps but I really just want the convenience of an aircraft that is available for say 10 days being away. I would like to travel a bit but do not want to get hit with the minimum rental rate if I want to visit longer.

Any advice??

If your gonna get block time.. Go Multi engine! Especially if it is cheaper then the schools and if they wont give you any deals!!
