How we pick airplanes
A Part 141 trainer earns its keep: cheap to maintain, forgiving to learn in, IFR-capable, and easy to insure. These are actual aircraft for sale on Controller.com that fit our syllabus — primary, multi-engine, low-wing, and advanced transition. We can pre-buy on your behalf and place the airplane on leaseback (Rule 8).
