Description

Unique opportunity to acquire a 75% ownership interest in a well‑maintained Piper Arrow, along with a hangar, all held within a clean corporate structure. This setup offers a smooth, low‑risk transition for the buyer and eliminates the usual complications of shared aircraft ownership. The aircraft and hangar are owned by a corporation, so instead of transferring FAA registration or renegotiating airport leases, the buyer simply purchases a 75% share of the company. This provides several advantages: Liability protection - ownership is through the corporation, not personal. Simplified transfer - no FAA registration changes, no new Bill of Sale, no downtime. Hangar included - access transfers automatically through the corporate structure. Clear operating framework - expenses, scheduling, and responsibilities are already organized. Ideal for someone wanting affordable, structured aircraft ownership without the headaches. This is a great fit for a pilot who wants the benefits of aircraft ownership with reduced cost, secure hangar space, and a stable, well‑managed arrangement.
