In 2009 after the crash private jets were availlable at very distressed pricing as there were a lot more sellers than buyers.
Not sure how that will play out this time.
May have a ways to go yet.
Commercial airliners have to be surplus as Airlines are cashing them out and leasing back what they need.
Cash is king.

Yes, Air Canada did that a few months or weeks ago. West jet leased theirs out to Cargo. It's just interesting that you can get a very nice plane for the same price as a new sprayer. yes, most don't take a sprayer that long of a time to pay but it's a comparison. Hopefully, we will all be able to get back in the air soon as this shut down and border bullshit is getting old.

I miss Florida. Real Bad.

Biden is in the process of isolating Florida because they didnt vote for him.

Same approach we have here in Canada, reward and punish. Billions thrown into liberal cities for bike paths and buses and entire productive sectors of our economy ignored or ruined.

What a joke our political system has become. Its like a high school council.

I have to agree. We’re out sleding at the farm.

There's a lot of hungry pilots needing work, plus fill it up with farm winter diesel, it's a win win.
But if you could get the federal contract to fly the PM on his multiple holiday trips you could have it paid for in a year.
Then you and JT could kick back with a scotch and have a casual philosophical conversation whether common sense is necessary in governance in today's world.

My point is farm equipment that you use for 6 months then sits is as expensive as this plane.

The maintenance costs and in flight costs are crazy on private jets.

The jet cards are a better deal. $125k per yr gives you 50hrs flying time.

It's interesting times.

Wouldnt it be nice if prices went up just once and guys actually got about three years of high prices before the parasites swoop in to sc**** the meat of the bones.

Even all my city friends and relatives ask about canola prices...the word is out, Deere and Case might have heard too.

Oh, I almost forgot the big news Federated Coop now has reached a partnership agreement with Blair's Fertilizer and will basically run the Stores. Code for it's a done deal.

Had some interesting Zoom Zoom meetings this week.

Didnt get to be on a zoom, any big changes coming to how they operate? We buy our fert from Blairs pretty much exclusively.
