If you could just give me an idea of, you know, what sort of asking price you guys are looking for it?
I think on that aircraft is somewhere around $13,000, $13,500, something like that. I'll have to get the number exactly from James because he's talking with the owner much more regularly.
Oh, okay. All right. Okay. Well, that would be good.
Is that in the price range you're talking about? You're looking at?
Yeah, yeah. That would be— yeah. I mean, obviously, they negotiable. And, uh, you know, that would be the sort of, yeah, ballpark we'd be looking at. Yeah, that would be okay.
Okay.
Um, it's based in England, is that right?
Uh, no, that aircraft's actually based in Dallas, Texas. We're based in England.
Oh, okay, okay. All right, all right.
Where are you located, sir?
Well, I'm pretty close to actually, of all places.
Ah, okay. All right. Do you have an aircraft now?
No, not at the moment, not at the moment, but we've been looking towards, uh, you know, one of these Globals. I just wanted to check with you on this one.
And, uh, what's your, what's your budget you're looking to spend?
Well, that would be the top end of it at the minute, to be honest with you, the $13,000, $13,500.
Okay, well, I mean, do you know a lot about the Global Express, or, um, have you looked at anything else?
Yeah, yeah, I know a reasonable amount about them. Yeah, pretty well up to speed with them now. We've been looking around at several. I really wanted to have a look at this and, uh, you know, get an idea of what your price was. Whereabouts are you operating?
I'm just in London, in Mayfair, just on Park Lane.
Oh, I know where you are. Yes, yes, I do. Yeah, of course, of course. It's the— yeah, I know exactly where you are.
You come into London a lot?
Not a great deal. I try and avoid it.
Okay. Have you been chartering at all, or is this your first aircraft you're going to own?
We've basically— we've been using trains, airplanes, and that sort of thing. You know, it's all right. We weren't paying for them.
Okay. That's the best kind. I'll send this to you right away, and then he'll probably give you a call tomorrow and answer any questions you might have.
That's excellent. Thank you very much for your help.
Thank you. Appreciate your time. Appreciate your call. Okay, now bye-bye.
