Aircraft tax question

So if I bought a damaged aircraft for $5000, repaired it, painted it, and
sold it for $50,000, I would be liable for taxes $45,000?
That's pretty much the way it works. If you hold it for a year, you are
taxed at the capital gains rate of 15% (plus whatever gouge your state
wants). If you sell it in under a year, you pay whatever your top
tax bracket is one the income.
