Hey guys
A college friend of mine owns his own company, based in a large metro area, and came to me for info on buying an airplane.
Quick overview
- 4 to 6 passengers max for the flights....all into paved asphalt strips
- wants turbine
- most flights will be DAL->PHX->DAL type trip lengths, once a week
- twice a week, DAL->MAF/LBB trip length
- OCCASIONAL DAL->TEB trip length but once every 3 months type of thing.
- budget of $5 million for the purchase, but $3 million more desired
- wants proven, reliable airplane, easily serviced on the road at FBO's if need be
I am originally was thinking that this screams "King Air" (200 or 350) but upon market price checks, I don't see why a late 90's Bravo could not do the mission. Even PC-12.
this looks like another King Air or a Citation argument
any info desired
** no PM's on pilot job questions please
thanks
