Question: I am a fairly new private pilot and I just moved to a new state, which means I need to find a flight school to rent airplanes from. I went to one and when I asked to see the logbooks for the aircraft the person behind the counter refused, saying they weren’t going to do that unless I was from the IRS or the FAA and the owner of the school was there.
I thought it was common practice to review logbooks before you rent an aircraft? Or should I just trust that the school knows what they are doing?
