  1. Alright boys, which one(s) we buying?

    Legroom won’t be an issue on any of these aircraft.

    At least eight luxurious aircraft — seven airplanes and a helicopter — will be sold at auction Saturday at Spinks Airport, a general aviation hub 14 miles south of downtown Fort Worth.

    A local company, Assent Aeronautics, will host the auction. The aircraft, all of which are immaculately equipped with amenities such as leather seating and wood paneling, are believed to have a collective value of $28 million.

    Officials at Assent Aeronautics say they plan to hold future auctions quarterly, to provide an ongoing, trusted forum for bringing together aviation buyers and sellers. The next auction is scheduled for March 19-21.

    “The Assent Platinum Auction is a marketplace for qualified aircraft owners and aircraft brokers to present their aircraft to real qualified bidders, not just the same old internet search engine tire kickers,” Jake Banglesdorf, Assent Aeronautics vice president, said in an email.

    Among the items on the block:

    • 2014 Challenger 605. Wanna fly to Europe? This plane has a range of 4,123 nautical miles, and a cruising speed of 528 miles per hour. Oh, and the seats can be converted to fully flat beds.
    • 2002 Falcon 2000. This long-distance beauty comfortably seats 10 people.
    • 2007 Citation Mustang. Can be operated by a single pilot, and comfortably seats up to five passengers.
    • 1998 Citation Bravo (two available). These planes seat seven passengers.
    • 1990 Citation V. This plane has a cruising speed of 456 mph and seats up to seven passengers.
    • 1977 King Air 100A. Seats up to eight passengers.
    • 2018 Robinson R66. This turbine engine helicopter has a range of 350 nautical miles and seats up to four passengers.

    Bidders must register in advance, and provide a bank letter of guarantee or escrow deposit confirmation.

    For more information on the auction, or to arrange a preview of the aircraft, visit www.AssentAuctions.com.

    Assent Aeronautics was founded in Fort Worth in 2004. The company offers aircraft brokerage services, aircraft transaction consulting and aircarft management and maintenance.

    Final was kinda gay. Freakin carnival games throwing ball in basket. Lol.

    I know TJ has to say it every season, but how was this the toughest final ever? 16 miles would certainly suck, but the eating part was relatively minor & swimming wasn’t a big deal. All of stage 2 was basically puzzle.
