If he's had it long enough, it may well be a deal at that price. My Six
has
doubled in value since I bought it 9 years ago. That number is not far
off
from my "investment". As investments go, the airplane has performed quite
a
bit better than my market holdings, and I've been able to use it too!

Consider yourself lucky; many aircraft values have plummeted the past few
years. Our company bought two aircraft in the past three years at
substantial discounts (like desperation sales...asking for $3.1 and selling
at $2.4 after sitting for six months and needing to get out of it.)
