My current business has no need for travel other than annual
conventions. However, I'm looking at puchasing a company that writes
software for municipalities, so I see a definate possibility of using
a plane to visit cities around the state.

One question I have that I don't recall ever seeing discussed here...

When you purchase a plane for business use, can it be a homebuilt?
For instance, a RV-6/7 would be an ideal platform for buzzing around
the state visiting customers. To get similar performance out of a
production airplane I'd be looking at well over twice the cost.

What kind of business are you in and how do you use your owned
airplane for business as a productivity tool (not just a tax
write-off)? There have been plenty of discussions on this group about
tax issues, but few on the use of an airplane to make a business more
successful.

Me? Unfortuanately my accounting work has no business need for an
airplane (yet?).
