In several industries companies and individuals can buy equipment such as machinery, boats or even aircraft and then lease them back to rental agencies, marinas or fixed base operators (aviation). This is a great accounting strategy allowing someone or company to own an asset and have it pay for itself through the rental fees. The owner of the asset has the ability to tax full advantage of the tax write off of this asset and depreciate it as a business in itself, a rental business, even if the individual owns the item. Once the equipment, boat, or aircraft is fully depreciated, paid for the owner of the asset still owns it at its then current book value. Many years back, I had sold aircraft...

RC airplanes are exact miniature replicas of the various planes that have graced the skies with their flights some time or the other. It could be a magnificent B-52 Bomber, or the formidable Airbus or the graceful Concord, albeit with much lesser power. These RC planes (also known as model airplanes) are generally tough to fly the first few times, but once you get the hang of them, you will be hooked. Model airplanes are usually made up of plywood, balsa wood or, at times, of composite fiber. Like their real counterparts, the design of a model plane is based on its utility, power of the motor and most importantly on the skill of the 'PILOT'. The engine generally consists of a motor ranging from 15cc...

ext">A few years ago opting to become a pilot was one of the best career decisions to make as it offered both prestige and money. However, over the few years the lull in the aviation industry at large has caused the entire framework of lucrative jobs to come crashing down. The high flying career of a pilot has come to a halt and is no longer as cushy as it once was. In India a number of aviation academies had cropped up to train aspiring pilots but the drastic economic shift, the rising oil prices and the reduction of expansion services of aviation companies has caused a huge downturn in the number of students opting to become a pilot.

A study from the Department of Transportation has concluded that simulator training has numerous benefits. Despite these facts, simulators have been viewed by the trucking industry as marginally effective and too costly. These perceptions were not too far off the mark. Up to this point the simulator industry has not had a workable platform that incorporates a lesson plan as part of the simulator package. Those who chose to use the technology were left to their own devices and paid too much. Today however with high tech hardware becoming more affordable along with a fully integrated driving curriculum included in the simulators, professional drivers can afford the benefits of this level of training...

For many of us, beginning a business may become a challenge. Even if we already have deep understanding about the business and have something in mind about what are we going to do, starting a business still can be a difficult task to do. And what about establishing a charter plane business? I believe that this business is a sophisticated business for many of us. Do not be worry though, as it is not as sophisticated as manufacturing an air craft. It becomes difficult since we are trying to compete with a service that lots of people are acquainted with and there are already top famous names out there which already run the same business much earlier than we do. However, I do believe that by knowing how...

The figure of 'the boss' has often taken a pummeling in history. Everyone remembers David Brent and his frequent hapless attempts at cool bonhomie. The infamous Ebenezer Scrooge set the iconic role of the boss at Christmas in Dickens' A Christmas Carol, as he grumbled and grumped his way through Christmas before seeing the error of his ways. Christmas is forever marred for bosses who, despite the festive season, have to attempt to keep their businesses running at anything like a normal pace and keep their staff focused. In this case it might not come as a surprise that they are often labelled as the title suggests, and are not all that interested in Christmas gifts. So then, the head of your...

A group of employees from a not-for-profit organization in Port Moody, BC recently found themselves suspended 30 metres above a whitewater river between Blackcomb and Whistler mountains. They performed aerobatics, turned upside down, and flew along at speed of up to 80 kilometres per hour on a wire. Their employer had not set up the experience as a team-building exercise or a morale-boosting event. Instead, it was a way to say: "thank you." Today, when developing employee incentive programs, more employers are choosing healthy, outdoor adventures as experiential rewards, rather than cash. These can range from a day of whitewater rafting or skiing to solo indoor mountain climbing or a kayak/canoe...
