My buyer in Israel arranged everything to move my ship from Midwest U.S. using one of the main logistics companies. Cost was about $2500.

Not far off OT. The Swiss Franc is quite strong, so the buyer I have has a wee bit more flexibility wrt shipping costs. We're just trying to unnertand the mechanics.

We're just trying to unnertand the mechanics. 1) Have inspection done that meets whatever the new jurisdiction requires for an imported aircraft 2) Deregister aircraft in US 3) Talk to logistics company 4) Tie down trailer in container when logistics company arrives. They will pick up anywhere. 2C
