The distinction to be made is that sellers will in many cases
want to sell the entity, and in some cases they will
insist on doing so. At that point the buyer must understand that the deal is not doable, and why.
And it's not just little airplanes, when I first tried to buy a G-V in Houston for a Dallas-based sports team owner in 1999, the trash hauling company that owned it insisted on selling the entity. I told them we could continue the discussion only if the transaction included only the airplane and not the wrapper, and after a brief consultation with their aviation attorney they quickly agreed.
PS: This is it. Do you like green and yellow trim? Does it remind you of any dumpsters you've seen?
