Ok so buy a house next to a strip with your own hangar and become an airplane mechanic. How come I never thought of this?

If you’re truly passionate about flying and owning aircraft then you do what you have to do to make it happen, that’s what I did anyways. Exactly that. And I have less than 60k of investment in everything. The property generates profit now.

Fair enough, and I respect the commitment and that you share how you made it work. Without going 'all-in', having our own plane is a dream that'll never go through...

(But I can imagine that even with the same commitment a lot of people wouldn't have the opportunity to copy it - money is one thing but available property is another)

Agreed, a bit of luck is absolutely necessary.
