If you want to get rid of one of your aircraft, it might be a good idea to sell it. The process can be a bit tedious, but once you get the hang of it, it takes no more than a split second to sell an aircraft.

Sell a single aircraft

Before you can sell an aircraft make sure it is not operating any routes (i.e. 24 hours free). If you have one aircraft you want to sell, go to the aircraft's page and click on 'Sell Aircraft' at the right. You will get presented with the aircraft's value and the price range you can use. If you want to sell the aircraft to a specific player (Private Sale), enter the players ID number in the box labelled 'Sell to'. If you want the aircraft to be available to all players, just enter '0'. Now you enter the price you want to charge for the aircraft. Make sure it is within the price limits (between -50% and 133% of value). When selecting a price, note how the price on the market of similar aircraft is. Try to keep under those prices if you want to sell. The age does also have an influence on the price. The older the plane is, the lower the price has to be compared to the value in order for it to sell. When you click 'Put for sale', you will be greeted by a confirmation. You can now go to the aircraft market to see your sale.

Sell multiple aircraft

If you have a great amount of aircraft you want to get rid of, you can use Airline Moguls feature, mass-sell aircraft. First make sure the aircraft you want to sell does not operate any routes. Then go to Aircraft > Mass-Sell Aircraft. Of the aircraft presented on the list, you select the ones you want to sell by checking the check-boxes on the right of the list. At the bottom of the list there are two input fields. The first field is for the user ID if you want to make a private sale. If you want to make the sale publicly available, leave the field blank. The next field is the price setting. You will set the price as percent of value. This makes it easier, especially if you have several different aircraft models. Select a percentage in accordance to the price you want to set, and click on 'Proceed'. The list is now updated with only the selected aircraft, and also the price they now have. The aircraft are not put for sale yet. You can now repeat the process until you have reached a satisfying price. This time, instead of clicking on 'Proceed', you click on 'Sell Aircraft'. A confirmation message will show telling you the aircraft have been put on the market.

Editing an Offer

If you have put an aircraft on the market, but want to change the price or availability, you first go to the aircraft market. There you click on 'Aircraft offered for Sale or Lease'. There is a list of all the aircraft you currently have on the market. To the right of each aircraft on the list, you have three options: modify the sale, remove the sale, or check the check box. If you choose to modify the sale, you will be presented with the same page as when selling a single aircraft. When clicking on remove sale, you will be asked for a confirmation. But if you check the check boxes, you can mass-edit or mass-remove the sales at the bottom of the list. By selecting 'Modify Sale', the selected aircraft will appear on their own list. There you can edit the price and ID of the user you want to sell to. If you want the offer to be publicly available, just type in '0'. When done, just press 'Update Info' If you would rather remove the aircraft from sale than just edit them, just press the 'Remove from Sale' button at the bottom of the list. You will now have to confirm the removal of the selected aircraft.
