Ok, how about this: When it comes time to sell the winning aircraft (and
face potential capital gains and depreciation recapture, of which I was
previously unaware - tnx, Fred), the winner purchases another business
aircraft that qualifies for a 1031 like-kind aircraft exchange, then does
not aggressively depreciate the second aircraft.

Would that indefinitely defer the depreciation recapture of the winning
aircraft?

Why wouldn't you depreciate that airplane too?
