Hello all,
Wanted to hear your advice about buying a brand-new plane even before getting the PPL ticket. Here is my situation: I am a businessman sitting on quite a bit of cash being generated by my business, and I am also a student pilot, will probably get my ticket by the next Summer. I am thinking about buying one of them Cirri SR22. Considering that the inflation in this country is picking up, and also that there is quite a long waitlist for those Cirrus aircraft, would it make sense for me to place an order now, and until I get my ticket and gain some experience, to lease the plane back to my local FBO? Does this make sense economically, or am I totally crazy? In general, how good an investment are those brand-new airplanes, provided one can afford to pay cash for them? Thanks in advance, A Newbie Pilot |
