Enlighten myself.. Ferry, means "Flying an "aircraft" from A to B in order to either : deliver it to a new owner, or in order to pick-up pax for a subsequent flight" is it ?

On the basis that the above definition fits the "Ferry" concept, is it safe to say that this "unknown" light aircraft will not be used to carry pax on the subsequent flight flight, but is going to be delivered to a new owner, otherwise it would be a "trip" no ?

If the aircraft albeit "unknown" is : Single-Pilot, has less than 500Nm range, run on AVGAS, then it fits into a container; if it does not fit any of the above then the planning phase would take more time than the flight itself, just be cautious, not to meet Solar Impulse on the way down...mind you they have no fuel issue.
