  • Does Nathan have one plane or a fleet? I ask because something caught my eye in Lawson and Tiffany’s latest video when Nathan was giving a tour of the airport he works out of. One of the planes he pointed out is sold and maintained in the U.S. by my FIL’s company. He doesn’t own the company but is the director for maintenance operations. It wasn’t the plane he was flying but I couldn’t tell if he owned any of the others he was pointing out. If I found out a Bates is one of his customers I would.”
  • My best friend’s husband is a corporate pilot. He owns two planes. They are expensive, but probably not as expensive as people tend to think. It’s very common to get a charter certificate and offset a lot of the costs of ownership that way.”
  • A 1977 Cessna is $30k and the cheapest helicopter on the site is a 1960 model that’s $55k. Anything newer or nicer is six figures. That’s pretty expensive to me.”
  • It would be interesting to know how the ownership of all the aircraft between the Bates and the Duggars breaks down. Some of them used to be under iblp ownership didn’t they?”
