I've seen some FBO's have an hourly rate for loaner headsets. Upwards of 8 dollars an hour. I don't particularly like that. But I think Loaner headsets fall into the adage that "Nothing is Free". Why should Loaner Headsets be free to use?

I don't see it as unfair. I think a set fee of 5 dollars upfront is okay. Someone has to pay for the headset. I would think the people that actually use them should pay. I like that thing Aloft said about Gibbs, that sounds pretty neat.
