Owner / buyer learning path

Lite modules — depth can grow. Prefer Howse Manager for routing to tools.

First aircraft buyer checklist

Mission, budget, insurance eligibility, hangar plan, training currency, and support network before you fall in love with a listing.

Reading logbooks

Airframe / engine / prop books, gaps, damage history, and how pre-buy inspectors use them.

Insurance & hull/liability basics

Hull vs liability, open pilot warranty, and why experience drives quotes (educational).

Hangar vs tie-down

Weather exposure, corrosion, and true monthly cost differences across regions.

Mission matching

Training vs personal travel vs business trips — match category and seats to real hours and runway access.
