As the thread title suggests, does anyone know of any AOC's for sale that weren't in the latest AvTrader?
It would be appreciated if you could either post, or PM me with any leads,
Thank You

Saw your post re AvTrader. Is this the same as AvTrader (http://new.avtrader.com/index.php)
If not, do you have a link?
Thanks

AOC's for sale
It is not possible to "buy an AOC"
However you can buy a legal entity that has an AOC.
One trap is if an AOC is issued in the name of a person ("Joe Blogs" trading as "Joe Blogs Doggy Airlines"). Joe Blogs cannot do anything with it.
However, if Joe Blogs owned all the shares in a company called "Joe Blogs Doggy Airlines Pty Ltd", Joe could sell the shares in the company to another person. The AOC remains with "Joe Blogs Doggy Airlines Pty Ltd"
This is about the only was to "buy" an AOC

If I was Joe Blogs of Joe Blogs Doggy Airlines, I'd wanna sell it too.
Can't be a good business plan flyin dogs around, don't imagine they'd pay much.

you might try Barbara Begg at Barwon Heads, believe she was in the process of changing her AOC form personal to Company to sell to the new owners of the airfield, but appears they have shafted her and brought in another flying school operator and terminated her services with a couple of days notice.
worth a contact.
