Even a high-time pilot qualified in several types of general aviation and business aircraft can find himself out of his element when looking to buy his first warbird.
Courtesy Aircraft has over 25 years experience in the sale of all types of Warbird Aircraft. This experience has given us a unique perspective on civilian operation of ex-military aircraft. Questions about operating costs, insurance, certification and maintenance are relatively easy to check out when buying a GA aircraft, but they are tougher to answer when they are asked about World War II and Korean War vintage military aircraft. This section of our website is devoted to information on operational issues–performance, cost and maintenance of these aircraft.
The Aircraft Profiles are offered to give you answers to many of the daunting questions that plague first time buyers. Courtesy Aircraft is confident that the information provided will help build the knowledge that you will need to make your warbird buying decisions.
Feedback is always welcome and should be directed to sales@courtesyaircraft.com.
