What Kind Of Private Jet Can I Purchase For 5 Million Dollars?

Aircraft brokers hear that question alot! The quick answer, there are all kinds of private jets that can be purchased for 5 million or less. But, there are many factors that you must consider first. The most important decision you must make is what is your "Mission Profile"? Just like cars and trucks what are you going to do with it? You buy a truck to haul stuff, you buy a Volkswagen to save gas, you buy a van to haul kids. All three could be priced exactly the same given the year of manufacture and condition. If you don't know your mission profile I will promise you that the 5 million will go right out the window and maybe without ever flying what you purchased. Questions to consider (just to name a few); Are you carrying a lot of passengers or is it going to be you and your cat? Are you going to fly it or hire professional pilots. Are you flying cross country or over the Atlantic once a week or just going to a vacation spot once a year. The second thing to consider is the cost to operate and cost to maintain.


Most single aircraft (not all) corporate flight departments in general have an operating expense of one million US dollars per year (again depending on several different factors). Gulfstream IV - Priced in the 4-5 million dollar range. This aircraft can fly from Chicago to London non-stop on almost all conditions. Carries around 15 people in jetsetter style. Maintenance though is going to be well over a two million plus each year. The new "Fly it yourself" aircraft the Cirrus Vison SF50 - holds 3.5 people comfortably and you fly it yourself. Other wise know as "Dr. Killers". Another newbie on the block the Hondajet - Base price is about 4.5 million. Seats 4-5 comfortably and has a range around 1200 nm at about 420 knots. If you are looking at an aircraft with less cost to operate but shorter in range and capacities then the Pilatus PC12 is a good choice. We could go on and on about what to buy for 5 million bucks. Bottom line there are several different types of aircraft to choose from. Then do yourself a favor and hire a good qualified aircraft broker that can help you figure out what you mission profile is. That in itself will save you at least a million!
