Buy an Airplane

If you're determined to purchase an airplane, you're going to need a plan.  First you have to understand how you will use the plane.  Why do you need/want one?  You'll want to consider your functional needs such as capacity, power and speed, as well as, the elements of personal taste like styling, aesthetics and comfort.

There's no sense falling in love with an aircraft you can never afford, so it may be wise to take a look at your budget before getting too involved in selecting model and make.  If you need to finance your purchase, check with reputable lenders and calculate your loan costs.  Remember to include insurance and housing costs as you examine your budget.  Use our cost estimator to determine what buying an airplane is going to cost you.
