I want to buy a new agricultural aviation company. I currently own the sightseeing one. But the UI blocks me, saying “aircraft available for purchase” which is red.
I checked the “buy new airplane” market, there is a passenger variant only. Why other variant is not showing up?
The aircraft variant you buy is specific to the company for which you are buying it. For example, to buy a PC-24 VIP variant you need to buy it for the Charter company. To buy the PC-24 Cargo variant you buy it for the Cargo company.
If a particular variant is not useable in career then there will not be a way to purchase that variant.
You mean I have to buy the company first then buy the plane, right?
But how to make the company buyable? Clearly you can see if it is not eligible one.
From what I can tell, most of the time you need to have enough credits to both buy the license for the company and also one of the aircraft. Of course, for each aircraft you need to have the required certifications to fly it.
It does not make sense. Why can‘t I buy the company first?
One of your specialisations is not unlocked. If you look at your first slide you will see it says 1/2 specialisation unlocked - this probably means you haven’t done the STAR mission yet first and then it will unlock your ability to purchase.
I cant find any STAR mission anymore. But I did it as employee.
I can do agricultural mission as employee either. This type of mission is everywhere around the map by helicopter.
Every company has its own star mission which needs to be done first. Another person was also complaining that they could not find a star mission. There is a specialisation that has not unlocked yet which is why you can’t buy a heli. You need to figure out what that is. Otherwise you need to ask for further support from the moderator. Perhaps someone else who knows that process can help.
I know I need to do the STAR mission. Like I said, I already completed it as an employee.
The unfinished specialisation showing is the airplane one. But it is not required because the bulletin point is green. The actual problem is the airplane is unavailable to purchase which is true. I cannot see that in the market.
No that’s not the problem here. OP probably is only missing the tail wheel endorsement or something preventing the use of planes for crop dusting. Helicopter side of that career path looks to be unlocked and a company can be started that way.

You need to have enough money for the company license AND your first aircraft to start a new company. Only then can you purchase the company and look at the market of available aircraft. That’s simply how the game was designed.
For agricultural aviation that lands you somewhere around 1.2 or 1.3 million at the cheapest. The Robinson is bugged and not usable so H125 is the only option.
If you click on the company it tells you what the cheapest available aircraft is. That will be a Robinson but again, don’t buy that, it’s not usable.
Understood.
