I have been seriously comtemplating putting together a deal where I sell 4 shares in a quality C177 fixed gear IFR, GPS eqipped aircraft here in the USA, (Florida) I recon that over a usual 250 hour timebuilding routine in say 6 months with a guaranteed buyback I could provide a quality, well maintained, four seat, 130kt aircraft for about $50 an hour. Not sure how much interest there would be though.
Capital cost would be $12,000 (US$) with a guarantee 60% buyback. Any interest please send me a private message and I'll be glad to provide full details.
