Insurance is a must. Like car insurance,
airplane insurance has both liability protections and a provision for aircraft damage
called hull coverage. As with a new driver,
you can expect to pay more when learning
and see your rates stabilize once you earn a
certificate and add some experience.
Registering an airplane is easy. The FAA
requires a bill of sale and a registration
application. That's it. Five minutes and $5
later, you're an airplane owner. Drop it in
the mail to the FAA and you're ready for the
best part.
Step 5: FLY IT
Not yet a certificated pilot and the airplane
you just bought is halfway across the country? No problem-ask your flight instructor
to help you fly it home. It's a great opportunity to gain some real-world cross-country
experience. Many pilots have earned
tailwheel endorsements this way, or logged
hours toward a private pilot certificate or
instrument rating.
Most important, don't stop flying the
airplane once you own it. Nothing is worse
for an airplane engine-not to mention your
happiness-than an airplane that doesn't
fly. Once you own it the relatively minor
cost of fuel and oil will quickly work its
way to offsetting those high flight school
rental fees. Plus, it's hard to imagine a better
feeling than taking a checkride in your own
airplane. FT
