Not sure where the fees go. Maybe to offset expenses of the instructors and course material. I polled my Grumman groups for some insight and knowledge, but all we have there is an owner that's doing AOPA air safety seminars. Looks like emulating the BO society's approach will go a long way to helping RV (10) drivers live longer! I applaud the group taking a proactive approach to the safety problem. It should pay off well in the future.

The Mooney MAPA SF PPP operates about the same schedule, 2.5 days of ground and flight instruction, 12 hours classroom, 4 hours flying, for $795. They don't recover full cost at that price and depend on some donations. They also charge the same for a new owner of a $40K, 45 yr old Mooney as the new owner of a $400K glass panel new Mooney. That generates some heated arguments.
At least with the RV-10 you are talking about pretty similar airframes with about the same powerplants, with most of the variation likely in the instrument panel equipment. And they will all be relatively new.
You may want to think about minimum requirements of flight experience, getting rider for the instructor's coverage from the insurer of the owner's policy, what preflight inspection of the aircraft you want, to protect the "organization" and the instructor. I don't think you want it to be transition training, or if so, someone would have to provide the aircraft and instructor, and probably should be a separate course.
