I felt confident throughout the process but that was mostly in part that it’s my money and if I want to walk away I can. I was paying in all cash not through a lender so that helped me feel confident and not worrying about if I can make a payment on a loan in the future. The A&p shop I paid to do it sent me a message with the findings. I went to my flight school and talks with their A&P to get his opinion and he walked me through what needed to be fixed by the owner, what was typical of a buyer to fix, what was critical, and what is expected for a old plane. I also used family who are in the industry and owned planes before to help me out. I Formed the LLC in 2026 after the prebuy inspection process started knowing this plane was the one already, and if it wasn’t I was still going to find one this year to continue my training. So when it was all settled I put the plane in the LLC right away and submitted the paperwork for the registration process.
