Bitcoin Forum

As a pilot you should how easy it is to track a N number then, the publicity of selling an aircraft using bitcoin is not wanted, see what Crazy Blane got selling a porsche.  

Honestly he could or cold not sell the plane, he was looking at another model in the make today, but this is an actual ad and he has had 3-4 of the same plane in last 5 years.

Again really the only personal aircraft trade site is tradeaplane or brand sites, Controller and Aso are more broker sites.

You are a pilot then what type of plane is it? I can tell you its not a 172 or 182.

Nope read the title and posts it's IN there.

Note: This is not an airplane you can train in, also consider your locations hangar costs, aviation gas, insurance and such                  
                  
Note: Currently there is a sale pending but scheduling pre-buy and visits dates are a bit of issue                   
                  
Also hours will increase due to weekly flying 2-5 hours a week.                  
                  
Plane is $167,500.00 in USD + 10% Fees via BitPay so cost at purchase time plus Fees      

For Example on 5/18/13    Mt Gox $123.25               
Airplane                                                           Bitcoin Equivalent      
Plane                                                  $166,500.00        1350.912779         
Deposit (Check Only)                       $1,000.00            
Bitcoin Fee/Broker Fee             9%            $14,985.00            121.5821501         
BitPay                             1%            $1,665.00            13.50912779         
                                    Total    $184,150.00    1486.004057         
                  
Required $1000 check deposit, re-fundable - less any expenses on Prebuy location (ie Gas, Hotel, per diem) - please be East Coast only if coming to you (This check is not acceptable in BTC due to changing rates and could be a month or so to process based on pre-buy inspection)                  
                  
Bitcoin Fee/Broker Fee - Airplanes are a lot like real estate with brokers getting share! I will get my share via this and also what I need to setup Bitpay and share with Owner for accepting BTC (Basically Mt Gox +5% )                  
                  
BitPay 1%- This is the way the payments will happen, Title will be issued once check hits bank                  
                  
For information on the airplane such as pictures info (log books) and such please PM me with your name, address, and telephone number and Blockchain confirmation                  
                  
Required to be sent prior to releasing Info - 1 BTC - Refundable to 0.99BTC                  
1 BTC to my Address                  
16unH6DukY2kJhQHaPSUVBaL2nNp9zceX9                  
Once I receive the 1 BTC with confirmation I will return 0.99 BTC (0.01 Trans Fee)                  
(Please note this will be going to home Bitcoin-QT so it may take 12 hours)                  
                  
Why 1 BTC do you ask, well if you cant afford a 1 BTC then you cant afford ~1500 BTCs , This keeps publicilty of selling an airplane off the internet, and saves me time                   
                  
* Note- Preference is still Check to owner for $167,500 for airplane (includes deposit) and less expenses - Therefore no extra 10% fee               

I am currently in discussions with what I see is a valued member of this forum to assist in verifying I am not blowing smoke, also if you are interested see if John K will somehow faciliate the transfer that will be acceptable.  Again I am not interested in your 1 BTC but just getting enough info so I can tell youre not blowing smoke (yes I will be calling you to check) prior to telling John K to release or me resending you your BTC if you choose that option.


This will all be provided upon verification, also pictures, an older youtube video from prior salesperson, along with my name, address and telephone number, also online contact info, as this deal will need to be down in person with owner.  After that if you are interested log books and such.


The 10% fee will cover Bitpay, the commission I would get (just like a home realtor - standard practice in aircraft brokage), and him an extra % on top of planes cost for doing Bitcoins.

Remember not all people are against Fiat and the Federal Government.  Some just look at BTC as another diversification in their portofolio.

If you want to pay cash (check once cleared) again that is preferred and there would not be a 10% fee, just straight cash homey.

Also isnt the point of Bitcoins to keep it private?

You have to give all info out to sell an airplane, that is just how it is.

Actually I would not make 0.01 BTC, that would just be the transfer fee to Bitcoin-QT to send the 0.99 BTC back to you, again I added the John K option if you want to work out the deal with him and pay him his escrow fees (therefore he would make 0.015 to send a PM and then a transfer back to you).   Once I get your info and verify I will tell him to send it back to you and I will release the information.

At a minimum you must provide:
Model
Year
Engine hours
Airframe hours
Propeller hours
Condition paint/interior
State registered
Avionics

Yes, I told you info was in title and throughtout thread and before you post the controller ad its not in Lubbock, also could you remove your post answer so others wont think that as well.

Again this is another avenue to sell plane if not removed plane wont be for sell using bitcoin, and yeah I wont get a commission so I guess you win.

Fine then its a 3%, finders fee for me, 3% fee for me having to setup Bitcoin (so total 6%), 1% Bitpay and 3% for the owner getting an accepting bitcoin by choice fee in BTC for 10%

All information would be given to potential buyers on request after verification, I have asked mod for you to remove make/model.

As a pilot, I'm absolutely confused why you refuse to give a proper model or photos. It just doesn't make any sense. No pilot is going to even ask for information for a purchase without knowing he can fly it or not, what problems there are with that particular model, if it's comfortable or not, if it's flight worthy, etc.. Either you want to sell the plane or you don't. Anything else is a scam of some sort (stolen plane, improper papers, not flight-worthy, etc).

http://www.aerotrader.com/sell/ <-- these people really must be doing something wrong making their sales public!

*Production years on airplanes give models if you look at number of seats and type of tails (again another clue)*

Again car sells versus airplanes are very different creatures.  Lets say I was selling a Cessna 172 which is it is not as I said in the post for $43,000k.

So I go to google and type in cessna 172 (an entry lever learning airplaine) for sale, it brings up basically the 5 sites to sell planes on Controller, Trade A Plane, ASO, Barnstormers and Aircraft Dealer.

I click on controller and search by price, it has 4-5 options around that price range, lets just use this one (since registration is pending)
http://www.controller.com/listingsdetail/aircraft-for-sale/CESSNA-172P-SKYHAWK/1981-CESSNA-172P-SKYHAWK/1279113.htm

http://flightaware.com/live/flight/N5216K
It tells who owns it (Registration pending, probably due to recent sale prior to being sold buy guy in ad or controller)

But here is the old one - http://www.aircraftone.com/aircraft/registrations/lexington-ky-40515.asp

How easy was that would you want to be the seller or possible buyer (again those who can afford this with bitcoins might not want it made public, because its that easy)

Again clues to exact make a model are throughout the posts for people with aircraft experience.

Yes, that is exactly what I am trying to do.

Issue is the pictures are in my personal photobucket and that link is what I would be sending out.

I had no idea what that was but got it done,

Here is 2 front & panel.

I posted I saw this one earlier on thread it is now gone from bitmit.

This would be a good starter airplane but I would caution the hours SMOH on the engine, you would be looking at $10-15k in overhaul or a least $4k in top which i would recommend.

What does "SMOH" mean?

1) is there a bathroom?
2) how does the pilot get to said bathroom?  ???

Since major overhaul. If its for private use can you not use it as long as the compression stays with in a specific range?  Obviously this affects the price of the aircraft greatly though

1.  http://www.sportys.com/PilotShop/product/17485
2.  Self explanatory unless woman pilot, so they made the Lady J http://www.sportys.com/PilotShop/product/13088
3.  Lever for planes you cant open doors and windows definitely needed or just go for a old 150 and prop the window open and drop.

Wouldn't you get sucked out though?

Plane was sold for USD on June 3rd.

 2 possible replacement s are choosen, thanks for looking.
