It’s easy to get caught up in the magic when looking at private jets for sale–but once you have your first mechanical issue the magic dies a little.
Luckily, mechanical issues with private aircraft are often easily fixed. Here are some of your most common questions about private jet mechanics and mechanical issues:
- Why is my jet having mechanical issues?
There’s no one simple answer to why your private aircraft is having mechanical issues–only a mechanic can tell you that! However, some of the most common reasons may be bird strikes, equipment issues, plumbing, overheating, landing gear issues, and faulty sensors, to name a few.
- Is my aircraft more apt to have mechanical problems because it’s old?
Yes. Just like purchasing an older car, older private aircraft need more TLC and are prone to more mechanical issues than newer models.
- Does having my private jet maintained reduce the likelihood of mechanical issues?
Yes! Keeping up on the regular maintenance of your private aircraft is an important aspect of owning a private jet. The frequency of private jet maintenance depends on your specific model; however, it’s generally recommended that preventative maintenance should be performed at 25 hours and minor maintenance at 100 flying hours or less.
