I am looking for people to start or join a partnership in Jacksonville, FL.
I was in a 172 partnership in NYC but we just moved here and I want to keep flying. I am very flexible so hit me with anything

Have you tried checking out bulletin boards for partners wanted at Craig (KCRG) and Herlong (KHEG)?bluesky wrote:Hello,

I hope it is but working with a financial company dealing mostly with various public entities ( state and local ) - this is just first wave of layoffs and almost 30 million people not producing anything is sending ripples thru economy.Wm.Ince wrote:Fake news.Warmi wrote: . . . . . with almost 30 million people out of work and a lot of large states still projecting shutdowns going for a month or longer ... this is going to make Great Depression look like a minor bump and with planes being essentially luxury items I would expect tons of deals entering the market ( and I do mean deals - I think even 30-40% off once people realize that this will take another decade or so recover from )
Thank you for your civil rebuttal.

For instance ( what I am familiar with ) state and city budgets are being literally devastated right now and this will result in some kind combination of large public sector layoffs and/or huge tax increases which in turn will result in further slowdowns and ripples and so on and on.
It may be fake news to you, but certainly is not for 27 or so million people who are out of work and can't even get their unemployment check ...
This is already happening, Warmi. The owner of a plane I've been lusting after for several years (some of you who know me personally will know exactly what plane this is) contacted me two weeks ago. He told me that, due to circumstances beyond his control, he needs to sell his plane, and offered it to me first.Warmi wrote:with planes being essentially luxury items I would expect tons of deals entering the market

Unfortunately due to circumstances beyond my control (in fact, the same circumstances he is encountering), I had to pass. But, if my financial losses reverse sooner than expected, it's not inconceivable that I could end up owning my dream plane.
These are strange times indeed.
It's been discussed in other threads on this site, Bill, so I'll give you some hints. It's an LSA, it's red, it's a taildragger, it resembles a Globe Swift, and it's the only one of it's kind in the US.Wm.Ince wrote:If you don't mind sharing, what is that "dream plane?"

Oh, and my investment losses over the past two months would have paid for it.
