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.

How about around the region?


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?

It can be whatever you want, though the IRS might look askew at you when you
put stuff on your tax return.

For instance, a RV-6/7 would be an ideal platform for buzzing around
the state visiting customers.

And limiting your business too much.

To get similar performance out of a
production airplane I'd be looking at well over twice the cost.

How's it's reliability? Are you willing to cancel appointments? Critical
ones, such as closure meetings?

Sounds like (I maybe wrong) you're fitting your business to match your
aircraft whims, rather than your aircraft SPECS to match your business
needs.
