These results illustrate depreciation that is allowable under current federal tax guidelines for qualified taxpayers who use their aircraft in their trade or business.  However, there are a number of factors that are dependent on individual taxpayer circumstances that can impact the amount of depreciation deduction available.  Aircraft used predominantly in charter or other commercial use are depreciation over a 7-year life.  Aircraft predominantly operated on a noncommercial basis are depreciated over a 5-year life.  For more information contact Advocate Consulting at 888-325-1942.
