Possible TAX incentives  (We are hoping that this will be extended to 2007)

We have found the following information on the web. Be advised we are not tax advisors and you would have to check this out with your tax person. Since it might be very nice, we recommend you check with your tax adviser ASAP!

Create Jobs by Extending Bonus Depreciation and Eliminating the Placed in Service Requirement
 
Background
In order to stimulate the economy, the Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2003 included a powerful incentive for companies to buy new capital equipment, including business aircraft. The incentive, known as "bonus depreciation," changes the timing of the standard depreciation schedule to give more depreciation in year one but less depreciation in all future years (the total amount of depreciation remains unchanged). In order to qualify for this accelerated depreciation schedule, the new capital equipment must be purchased AND placed in service before January 1, 2005 .

Bonus Depreciation Works
Surveys of recent aircraft purchasers show that bonus depreciation has been directly responsible for generating over $2 billion worth of new airplane orders since its enactment last May.
These new orders have pulled the general aviation industry out of a downward spiral and preserved or created more than 20,000 airplane manufacturing jobs in the United States.

Cost Effective
Because bonus depreciation relates only to timing and does not change the total amount that can ultimately be depreciated, its true cost to the federal government is close to zero. In fact, when you consider the corporate taxes airplane manufacturers must pay on their profits and the income taxes their employees must pay on their wages, bonus depreciation is really a revenue raiser for the federal government.

Extension Needed Now
Congress intended bonus depreciation to remain a powerful incentive for capital purchases through 2004. But for products that take a long time to build, like airplanes, the bonus depreciation incentive will effectively expire much sooner.

Bottom Line

Deductions for costs associated with ownership and operation of aircraft are limited according to the percentage of qualified business use of the aircraft.  In general the aircraft must be used more than 50% for business purposes before any deductions are allowed, and then deductions (including depreciation) are prorated according to the actual percentage of business use.

The bonus first-year depreciation is 50%, bringing the total depreciation allowable in Year 1 up to as much as 60% of the acquisition cost of a new aircraft.  For a California resident in the maximum Federal tax bracket this creates an instant cash tax deferral of approximately 26% (43% of 60%) of the total price of the aircraft - more than enough to handle a hefty down payment

Once again Consult your advisors.  We are not in the tax advice business.
