Title: Aircraft Trade/Scrap
Post by: ceo_txi on February 27, 2008, 08:56:20 pm

I want to scrap my BAE-146,if the price is right,or trade it for a DC-9-30.The DC-9 is cheaper in aquisition cost than the 146.
How can I make this happen?
Thanks for any help.
Joe

You can sell your current BAe-146 on the open market, and then use those proceeds to order a DC-9-30.

Only thing is, there really aren't many (any?) players who have enough cash to buy a BAe-146 right now. So I would hold off on that.

[I thought I knew the answer, but I guess I don't. See MrOrange's post below.]

You can't sell your current BAe-146 on the market, unless you own another plane. The code prohibit it, not to mention not one has the cash to buy it yet.

6M actually. To be exact, you'd get €5.995.349,625 which is just under 6M.
