The cost of the plane is trivial compared to upkeep, hangar rental, fuel, and myriad other expenses.
Sure, you can buy a plane for cheap, if you plan to keep it at your house somehow and never intend to use it.
Comment on YSK that americans can now deduce private jet expenses from their taxes
Taldan@lemmy.world 1 day agoTo be fair, you don’t have to be rich to buy a Cessna 150. $35,000 can get you a nice old one
Issue is with taking advantage of the tax benefits

Maybe this somehow makes them start manufacturing planes again, remember seeing those homelesss pilot photos when they had a surplus of pilots and not enough planes or ppl taking flights
Can’t find an image on google was “will fly for food” or something like that.
