What you describe is "franctional ownership" for owner-pilots and there are already equivalents of that in the airspace (i.e. AirShare Elite - http://www.airshareselite.com/).

The difference between SurfAir and fractional ownership is that the latter usually have a fleet of semi-identical vehicles (boats, planes, whatever) that are available at your disposal and that you are able to operate them... With SurfAir, it seems like there is only one plane with a pilot, which greatly limits flexibility and availability of the program.
