    Airplane purchase process

    Maybe a piper or Cessna 172 60K-80k$. I feel like I really need to understand this before I start contacting anyone about a purchase. I don't know any finer details besides this generic list. The buyer downloads a sample contract from AOPA is the usual process? Scary process when you're not...

    Airplane Registration expiration exceeds 3 years

    Hi I'm a pilot in training and noticed one of the planes at my flight school clearly shows the registration is valid for 6 years.
