Airplane ownership is a dream for many thousands of pilots. The MadPropsAero crew has owned a wide assortment of aircraft over the years. We're happy to share our tips to help you distinguish between a good buy and a money pit. Before the purchase, after the sale, and for as long as you own that magnificent beast.
The pre-buy inspection may be the best protection a buyer has to keep the dogs at bay while searching for your dream airplane. Don't lose thousands in an attempt to save hundreds. Pat and Jamie have been down this road many times. They've got some worthwhile insights to share.
Are you partial to high wing airplanes or low wing airplanes? Everybody has an opinion on the topic. Some are die-hard devotees of one or the other. Pat and Jamie get into it this week. What's your opinion?
Each airplane has multiple logbooks. Knowing what to look for, how to search, and what the information you find means can make all the difference between buying the aircraft of your dreams rather than the money pit of your nightmares.
Whether you're hoping to rent a T hangar or open a business on the field, you will be working with airport management at some point. That can get tricky and we can often be our own worst enemy in these interactions. Take care, be diplomatic, and take the time to consider what the airport manager's needs and concerns might be. It can be a delicate game, but with good preparation and an open mind you can come out ahead.
