<DIV>Well this is certainly a turn of events. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>With this scenario, EE isn't playing "the bank" at all. We would be coming up with the entire amount up front, paying off their loan giving them a profit. He then takes out a new note for $10k? I don't see the financing part of this at all. Why do they need that money if they were supposedly going to bank roll us? My idea of EE playing "the bank" is EE takes out another loan and WE pay it! </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>This is suddenly coming back around to looking like Tim just wants to unload the plane because he can't sell it and can't pay to put a new engine in it; and it feels like he's pulling a sales pitch on us. I wasn't there to read Tim's face or anything, but that's what it's sounding like in so many words.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Why wouldn't Tim be willing to guarantee a loan through EE? If we fold, then he gets a plane with a brand new engine in it that we had been paying down the principle on (at least 10% of).</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Coming up with $300 or even $1,200 is one thing, but I'm not willing to pay $4,000 to buy into 976 (and I doubt anyone else will either). Now if 15 people wanted to buy a 2001 Cirrus SR22 with a glass cockpit, well you can bet your rear end that I'll come up with $10k before the next sunrise... but not for 976.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I'm perplexed by this new information. He won't be guaranteeing anything if we just buy it straight out. That defeats the purpose of this entire charade and is no better than all seven of us just signing a personal guarantee on a loan ourselves.</DIV>
