Hey Folks, not really a poster on here - but I have observed something recently that I thought was worth raising.....
It really pays to check the financial health of other airlines before pulling the trigger on that next aircraft purchase? Some carriers are barely hanging on—selling off planes one by one just to survive.
Instead of buying at full price now, consider holding off. When those airlines fail, their fleets often flood the used market at much lower rates. Patience = profit!!
Food for thought to those just buying willy nilly.
Cheers

It's really crazy how some of these massive, over leveraged, and strategically lacking airlines are surviving by one or two aircraft purchases.
Take a look at the US airlines. There are about to be major bankruptcies but people keep them alive by buying their aircraft. These same people are competing with these slugs in the same bases!!! Crazy times!
Plenty around. Screwing up. Hope they go bust. Fuel can stay like this. Bye felicia
