Hi folks,
are there any internet based sites that may advertise aircraft shares for sale. I live in Essex, and I'd like to get involved in a syndicate of either a well equiped 4 seat tourer. Or maybe something like a Yak or a two seat Pitts.


Any thought will be gratefully received

Dave

A four seat tourer OR a two seat Pitts? I don't mean to ask the obvious, but are you sure you know what you want from an airplane?

Hi there,
I guess the aircraft I mention are at opposite end's of PPL aviation.
I've held a PPL for many years, and have revalidated my licence on a number of occaisions. I've also held a Helicopter licence (R22), which literally cost me an arm and a leg. But, I can honestly say that, hand on heart, that was some of the best flying I've ever done. But, when my little boy came along, I just couldn't justify that sort of money being spent, on my own gratification.
I've tootled about over south Essex many times, but I'm looking for something a little different. i.e. long distance touring, or perhaps looking at the world upside down?
I was considering Commercial flying. But, after reading some of the wannabe threads here on Pprune.....I'm not sure whether it's worth the risk?
Any thoughts will be welcomed.

Many Thanks

Dave
