Annuals are not going to hurt a plane. The reason to do this is to save
money on the next annual.

Victor has a good point to inspect many things an annual would not.

One more question: I heard more than one person suggest that I perform an
Annual inspection as a pre-buy inspection on the perspective plane.

Ok ... aside from the fact that it's expensive (I am sure), how does this
fit in the big picture really?

Let's invert the roles for a second, shall we?

I am a seller. One buyer wants to do an annual as a pre-buy. Would I let
him/her?

If the buyer does an annual (at his expense) and then he gets wishy-washy
and changes his mind and walks away (after wasting his money), what if
another buyer wants to buy the plane AND do an annual as a pre-buy?

Aren't annuals a bit ... invasive to the plane? Can't the plane be

damaged?

Is it possible/feasable/realistic that a plane on sale could get Annual-ed
more than once in a very short period of time if things don't work out for
one reason or another?
