Purchase of an Aeroplane
Hello,
I am about to embark on the investigative process of buying my first aeroplane. It will be a Warrior or a 172 or similiar, 1975 ish.
Can anybody help me with the do's and don'ts of investigating the purchase.
Questions I have:
How can I get indicative running costs of the aircraft I plan to buy?
Is there a engineering check/buying survey people recommend?
What age should I be looking at? In my opening I mentioned 1975? But I am not sure, obviously the newer the better, but money is a consideration.
Airframe and Engine hours: What are average totals for the age of the plane I am considering?
That will do for now.
Thanks for any advice given.
