Eagle East Flying Club

[Steve Gordon]

With a new engine and working equipment, 50K is pretty close to a fair
market price.  It's a bit high, but I think it's in the ballpark.  If we
were in a position to shop around, we may be able to steal something for a
good $10K cheaper, but that doesn't seem to be an option.

 

I think our squawk list has been communicated to Tim and Sean.  I would hope
that the transponder is replaced, the radios work satisfactorily (personally
I would settle for one "good one" and one that is adequate for receiving
ATIS and weather), and a fresh annual and IFR certification are performed.
New tires would be good too.  I have resigned to being satisfied with a
reliable airplane that can be flown for cheap.

 

Before I can make a decision I need to know how much of the cost can be
financed.  The less we can finance, the more expensive the buy-in is, the
fewer members we can recruit, making the buy-in and the regular dues more
expensive, and the vicious cycle is established.  Bob has a question in to
Tim, so we should know those details soon.

I have to balk at the $50k number.  Are they expecting us to negotiate and
beat down the price of it?  Because that's notably high.  I thought they
wanted to be part of the flying club.

 

That air frame can't possibly be worth $35k.  With an all new interior,
navs, comms AND a Garmin 430, sure, 35k is close.  But as it is with
"working" navs, comms and transponder (which means used replacements), no
way.

 

I guess what I'm saying here is they need to give us an exact spec sheet of
what would be done to it for $35k.

Bob are you agreeing with the price of $50,000 ? What was the response on
the $20,000 for the plane and $15,000 for a new engine.

Under each scenario how much is financed and how much is up front?
