Re: Aircraft ownership structure

How does that work? Who would buy the aircraft for the original purchase price after 25-50 years? In 2004 a DA42 was approx. € 450.000,- including VAT. This was with Thielert of course.

As such, I suspect this will impact Diamond’s ability to deliver any new aircraft which are not far enough along in production to have the engines curr...

Re: ECU Test (Ground Run-up)

The ECU test doesn‘t even start as long as oil and gear temperature are in the yellow range. The checklist says that both temperatures must be in the green range and gearbox temperature should be 38° Celsius min.

It depend...
