Advice on buying a aircraft
Hi all
I know there are already a few similar questions already posted on here about aircraft ownership but here's another
I'm currently flying around once or twice a month
Usually the flights are only local and lasting around an hour. Im seriously wanting to buy my own aircraft
Ultimately a four seater to enable me to take my family up.
Currently my airfield only hires there planes for hourly slots
I would like to go on the odd long trip say jersey or even Spain
How does insurance work ie hull and liability are they both compulsory?
Do I go for permit to fly or a Cessna 172 perhaps
What are the average costs
How many hours does an engine usually last before it has to be repłacd
I'm fine with renting but I like the idea Of owning so I can just jump in and go and stop over a night Without worrying about getting the aircraft back
Thanks
