2.0 ADVERTISING ON PLANECHECK IS NOT A RIGHT, BUT A PRIVILEGE. 

2.1 Rates

50 EUR
Over 140,000 USD

Over 100,000 EUR
100 EUR

Adverts run until you delete them yourself. There is no expiration date.


2.2 Site content

Each advertiser will make sure that the offered or wanted product is described conforming to reality. By submission of an advert, you give PlaneCheck permission to publish the information with regard to the product, on the site. 
The advertiser will maintain the content of the adverts up-to-date. Adverts are to be deleted as soon as they are no longer valid, for instance if an airplane has been sold or has been withdrawn from the market. 
The advertiser will not illegally upload any image which holds a copyright by third parties. If you want to upload a copyrighted image, you need to have permission from the copyright holder before you upload. By illegally uploading a copyrighted image, you may become subject to prosecution by the copyright holder.
PlaneCheck has the right to change the content of advert texts without notification, if such improves the quality of the advert in the view of PlaneCheck.
PlaneCheck has the right to remove pictures and images without notification, if the number of images is excessive or if images do not enhance the quality of the advert.
PlaneCheck has the right to change or remove content of advert texts without notice, if reference is made to a different channel or website which acts within the field of trading or auctioning of third party goods.
Adverts which advertise the sale of one specific and fully airworthy aircraft, are to be released within the airplanes section of the site.  
Adverts which advertise the sale of generic aircraft, may under circumstances be released within the airplanes section of the site. Such a submission needs prior approval of PlaneCheck. Please contact PlaneCheck about your request, if you would want to do so.
Adverts which advertise any aviation-related matter, other than one specific and fully airworthy aircraft, are to be released within the Full-Stops section of the site.  
The advertiser is not allowed to delete an aircraft advert from the airplanes section, with the goal of re-inserting the airplane again after deletion. Re-positioning of an existing airplane advert on the front page is to be achieved by reducing the airplane price in the existing advert. Airplanes which have actually increased in value, for instance after an overhaul, are exempted from this.

2.3 Advert removal

PlaneCheck has the right to remove any advert from the site, without notice. Adverts can at any time become subject to removal, but will do so at least when
The advert is released into an inappropriate section.
The advert is released more than once.
The advertiser's name appears to be a nickname, a false name or a fake name.
Different adverts describe the same product. In the case that 2 or more different advertisers publish the same airplane, PlaneCheck will decide which advertisements are to be removed, and will remove these without necessary notice.
The advert content violates article 1.7 
The advert consists of an airplane that has been deleted and re-inserted again after deletion.
The advert content is not related to aviation. 
6 months have elapsed after the advertiser's last Log In.
The advert exhibits business within the same field as PlaneCheck - meaning the trade of third party airplanes and aviation business via an internet website.
They have been submitted by an intermediate broker apparently without permission of the actual airplane owner.
Other sites or channels than PlaneCheck.com advertise the same airplane or product, but with a lower price tag.
An airplane's price tag significantly exceeds what PlaneCheck considers to be the market band width for that type, with regard to age, condition and location. "Opportunist" sellers in particular, whose main objective is to sample market interest in their airplane, risk removal of their advert.

2.4 Account removal

PlaneCheck will, without prior notice and for an indefinite time, exclude any advertiser who violates the Terms and Conditions, or who exhibits behavior which PlaneCheck considers to be non-consistent with the purpose of the PlaneCheck website.

2.5 Liability

PlaneCheck denies any responsibility for whatever damage, loss or harm, caused by illegal acquisition of products which are advertised on the site. In particular will PlaneCheck never be liable for any damage, loss or harm to product advertisers, caused by
products that are paid for with false, stolen, undeclared or otherwise illegal money.
sold products that are not paid for.
the fact that product purchasers criticise a sold product.
the fact that product purchasers deny or invalidate an agreement. 
the fact that product purchasers may not exist in reality.
the fact that product purchasers act illegal.

2.6 Down-time


PlaneCheck will never be liable for down-time of the site. However, advertisers who have activated one or more HighLight statuses, can under certain conditions apply for a refund. Refunds are applicable in cases of 24 hours or more of continuous down-time of the site. A refund will be proportionally to the period of down-time, and can never be higher than the amount which has been paid to obtain the HighLight status. Same applies to paid commercial adverts, other than HighLights.
