10-4. Yeah, I have no idea how long such things take, so that's a good thing to know. Thank you.

If you have seen Eman, you've seen the sister o_O I'm withholding pics for now. Don't want some smart individual with money to burn buying my investment out from under me. Edit: The second statement is about the airplane.

Oh, no. I probably didn't make myself clear. I'm buying the plane anyway whether I flip it or not. This is the plane my family is needing to upgrade to, and it'll do quite nicely. The flipping part just came about because I'm able to get it way under the current, stupid market, and there is...

Sweet! Plenty of room for that in the Six. I've always wanted a plane I can't see the ground in. :rolleyes: I feel like a traitor.

Well, it's better than having a loan on the plane isn't it :dunno: But yeah, If I keep it, it's certainly not ideal.

I agree. I did exactly that on my last plane. Installed a custom two-tone cloth and vinyl interior, all new foam, and carpet myself for $2200 and probably made an additional 10-15K. A big key to success on that is the ability to do it myself using cheaper,, nicer, non-aviation specific...

Exactly!

3.25% excise tax on purchase price. Pretty confident I can make 50%+ on the flip.

No, I'll have to borrow money for avionics. If I can't profit from it, I'll leave it alone. I don't have enough interest in the avionics to spend my own money on it.

My friend, this is actually a great plane for our needs. BUT, it's such a good deal in an insane market that I can't ignore the money making potential. Therefore, I'm going to buy it, fly it, but stick it on the market in the meantime.

Just sold my 182 to upgrade to a six seater. This is the upgrade we were looking for, and it is a keeper, however, I know I can make another chunk of dough by flipping it. Then maybe upgrade to an even nicer plane :)

What? Is it silly to ask fellow aviators about aviation stuff? I haven't bought any avionics or flipped any planes, so it doesn't hurt to seek advice from someone who might have done so.

'06 GMC Sierra with 250K miles. Gave 5K for it. I can have a nice vehicle, or own an airplane. Not both.

I came across a really good deal on an a six seat single on the extreme low end of the market, and I'm thinking about flipping it. Engine, paint, and interior are in good shape, but the panel is dated. Old Bendix King radio and nav/com, DME, VOR/GS, old school storm scope, and a wing leveler...

:rofl::rofl::rofl: Those were all meant to be compliments :dunno:

Very normal. I'm inclined to side with her parents from 24 years ago. :D

The little ones, or the large mouth bottle? If there was a 1K1 fly-in, I'd definitely fly up from 1K2 for that......if I have a plane.

I'm sad that we missed you, homie.

This is the main reason I showed up for Rough River. I had to see what kind of a woman would actually agree to marry EdFred. Turns out, the boy actually managed to hook a very lovely lady. I'm still confused about this whole situation.

Hmm. Should be able to swing it this year. Not totally sure I'll have the ol' Skylane replaced by then, but let's hope so. I'd ask Bry for another ride, but I don't think Eren would appreciate the way he touches me in the turb.
