Hello Fouad,

Unfortunately at this time the system will not allow selling an aircraft, that is a future planned feature. However I wonder, once we implement this feature we would want to make it so another member purchases the aircraft, no "automatic" sales right? We may need to take a vote!

Not sure we have enough membership to support a members only sale, so if we did include an "automatic" sale to the "virtual community" it would be at drastic discount?

Hi Tom,

Thanks for your reply, I do think that an automatic sales with the proper depreciation plus some kind of -10% sales commision would be a better compromise. there is so many planes for sale and its not from any member but lets say from the "the market" and the "market" should be able to take them back. I think it would give members the flexibility to buy different planes after some time, logicaly as of the real world we should be able to sell what we buy, otherwise there is no point to buy a plane with no option to upgade it, or seek a different type of plane. I am not sure, correct me if I am wrong, its the only way to spend the V money, and planes are pretty expensive, also selling and buying will bring more activities on the GA division.

please consider it :)

Tom,
Could you please offer a Cessna Citation Longitude for me to buy. This plane is already in the General Aviation Hanger but it is not for sale There are very few airplanes that work with my flight simulator and this one is one of them. Thanks

Hello Ken,

There are none for sale yet because none "exist in the World" - so what you need to do is fly at least one flight by renting it. Be sure to end the flight in the Country you wish the aircraft to be registered to. Once complete with the first flight, you'll notice that a Citation will now "exist" in the World with a registration #. Then the option to purchase will be available.

Start by renting here: http://air-source.us/Operations/asga/vi ... sp?id=1934

Hi Tom,

I would like to clean up my Hanger of personal planes, any progress on selling planes?

Would be great if we could, otherwise could it be donated to fleet.
