The top five reasons why you should buy and own a Cessna Cardinal:
• You already know how to fly it.
• They will hold their value.
• Maintenance will be manageable
• A Cardinal is an airplane you can grow into as a pilot
• A Cardinal is easy on the fuel.
A Cessna Cardinal is an awesome first plane to own, and they can be hard to find. To be perfectly honest, I bought mine knowing full well what needed to be upgraded. Here are the numbers of what I spent so far, after two years of ownership: I paid 38,000 for the plane. I put in 25,000 of avionics upgrades and my maintenance has averaged about 3,500 a year. All in all buying this plane made my life better. That is the best you can do in my book!
Cessna Cardinals have a cult following and you’ll always be able to buy and sell a Cessna Cardinal. Just in the time I have had this RU-vid channel I have had several offers to buy my plane, It is not for sale, not yet anyway. Now here is a slice of my experience in “ getting money out of things…. It’s may not be wise to enter into a luxury purchase such as an airplane, a boat, a specialty car or even an RV with the thought of “will I get my money out of it when I sell?” It may not be best to think like that because you can’t put a value on its use and the value owning and using this adds to your life.
There are numerous owners groups, like cardinal flyers online for support, and every cardinal owner will talk to you and share their ownership experience with you. And when you upgrade you will always be able to sell it quickly. Owning a Cessna Cardinal will make your life better!
Have you always wanted to learn how to fly but now you are over 50? Get out there and start and learn! There are so many people in there 50's and 60's who are just starting to fly so what are you waiting for?
