Why Choose a 10-Hour Test Flight?

The 10-hour test flight is ideal for serious buyers who want an in-depth experience. Over the course of the day, you’ll have ample time to explore the aircraft’s performance on various legs of a journey, test its handling in real-world conditions, and fully understand what ownership would entail.

Fly Before You Buy

Purchasing an aircraft is a significant investment, and a test flight is the best way to ensure you're making the right choice. Aircrafts vary in flight characteristics, handling, and avionics, so flying the plane allows you to assess whether it meets your specific needs. Ultimately, it's not just about specs on paper. Flying gives you a true sense of how the aircraft handles in different conditions, from takeoff to landing.

Maintenance and Ownership Considerations

Owning an aircraft comes with essential maintenance and operational costs that vary by model and should be considered before purchase. Regular upkeep, such as engine checks, avionics updates, fuel, and insurance, are required for all aircrafts. We help you understand these costs and emphasize the importance of considering resale value, which depends on the aircraft model and how well it’s maintained. Our team will guide you through potential resale values and assist you in navigating the long-term costs of ownership.
