Product: Buying and Owning Your Own Airplane
Buying an airplane isn’t an easy task, but it doesn’t have to be difficult either — if you read Buying and Owning Your Own Airplane. Jim Ellis's book is a handy, comprehensive guide that covers the particulars and special considerations for buying and owning your own airplane. Even more, this book provides information not easily found from other sources. There are tips on maintenance, ownership, and required government paperwork. Inside the Third Edition, you'll find everything from the first two editions: from selecting aircraft-purchase partners and home fields to negotiating sales contracts, to maintaining and upgrading your treasured bird. And don't overlook this important feature: A survey of the types of planes, new and used, that you can expect to find for sale, ranging from basic Piper Cubs and Cessna 150s to new planes with price tags over a quarter of a million dollars, such as the Lancair Columbia and the Cirrus SR22. Every chapter is updated, and the biggest changes reflect the huge impact of the Internet since the Second Edition was published. If you want to buy an airplane, you had better check the online listings included in this edition, because what you want will likely be long-gone if you wait for print advertising to come out. Information sources, whether on aircraft, engines, FCC regulations, Type Clubs, or almost anything else, are now available on the web (and maybe no longer in print), so the information in this edition is essential. FAA and other government forms have also become web-based and interactive. Other New Items for the Third Edition Include: This is the essential guide for buying and owning a new aircraft, with details on: If you’ve been flirting with the idea of owning your own airplane, after reading this book you may find that your dreams of ownership are indeed "the possible dream." Softcover, illustrated, 6” x 9”, 340 pages.
