		<description>Hi! Creating a business web site is not like popping down the shops for a bag of crisps. Business sites are there to make money so they have to look good and perform well and if they looked the slightest bit shoddy, then they will fail. There is a lot more to web design and development than just all the the techi stuff. There is marketing and psychology to name but a few.

Before you launch your self headlong into this business venture there are a few things you should do.

1. Have you a business plan? These usually show projected figures over a 3 year period. These are not just done for the benefit of banks but are used by businesses as benchmarks to see if they are hitting their projections or not.
2. Have you done any market research? Is there a market for your service? Just because you think there is does not necessarily mean there is in fact one.
3.With reference back to the business plan - have you sat down and worked out how much all this is going to cost you? If not, then you should do it now and don&#039;t miss out anything. Things like how are you going to package the DVD&#039;s? How much will that cost? How much time will you need to spend packing them up - time is money! How much will itg cost to post them. How much will the stock cost you. I could go on but it is begining to sound like a marketing lecture.

With regards the site, you will have to pay someone who knows what they are doing for you will need a lot of back end stuff. Your site will have to look and feel the part otherwise you will be throwing your money away - don&#039;t try and do it yourself in an attempt to save money - it wont. You have been given a lot of good advice in these answers - use it wisely.

Here is a tip - if you do your homework regarding your business plan and funding etc and you find that it is not viable - it takes a strong person to walk away from their dream, but don&#039;t fall into the trap of thinking that despite of what the figures and market research tells you it will work anyway - too many businesses go down the toilet because a) they are underfunded &amp; b) there is no market for their products or services.

Hope this helped you a bit and good luck!

Kind regards

		<description>Plan on $125 to $150 per hour, with a minimum 3 hour charge per day on an extended rental. Four hours per day on weekends.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;That&#039;s what my school charges for rentals. The local FBOs are all similar.</description>

		<description>All good answers so far.

Just to make it simple you&#039;re looking at at least $2,500 in rental charges, probably more than $3,000, if you can find someone willing to rent to your brother.  A light airplane is not a cheap way to travel for a single person.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>Different Fixed Based Operators (FBO&#039;s) will have different rates for long term rentals.  Most though will have at least some sort of minimum hour requirement per day.  The previous answer that said 3 hours a day is probably pretty close.  Also if your brother has never rented from them in the past he will have to have a check out from one of the FBO&#039;s instructor which will add on to the price.

Try to find out some airports near by your brother and then do a search of those online.  You should get some hits for FBO&#039;s or flight schools at the airport by doing this.  Then call them and ask for their rental rates as well as whether or not they do long term rentals.  This is the only way you will find out whether or not what you want is possible.  

While the other answers are correct that you will spend much more money this way than buying a commercial plane ticket, a long trip would be a good experience for your brother if he&#039;s up to it.  If he&#039;s working on his next ratings, he may need to build time anyway.  Good luck with everything.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>I&#039;m not sure I&#039;d want to go into that business.     Blockbuster is closing over 900 stores because of lack of business and there was a piece on the radio about some of the ways people are cutting back and one couple said Nexflix.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>
