I mean, can someone very rich has the money to buy one fighter jet (of course without weapons) just for the fun to fly them, can they buy them or not?

Yes, but good luck getting even basic parts. Those things are very high maintenance and you will need a ground crew and the desire to fly often (sitting around is bad for them). If it's an old plane, chances are is near its life expectancy which means repairs are even more costly and there is a good chance it would be more dangerous now than when it was new.

The main things that which you need to judge in any aircraft which is available for sale is the order of the aircraft, but you need to make sure that the aircraft for sale does not look disorderly. You can have an idea about the maintenance of the aircraft and how much you might want to pay out on the aircraft and its maintenance. JSI is also the buying and selling of business aircraft in an international marketplace. Our knowledge of the aviation industry, aircraft systems and equipment, and day-to-day market conditions is unparalleled.

Yes, and usually at a very reduced price, I wouldn't try to accessorize an old F-14 though with anytype of missiles though that might create a few problems

Y E S, but they are not cheap. If you have a
couple of million dollars laying around, you can
get a pretty good fighter jet.

Yes. of course like you said stripped. They're are auctioned off and some are open to the public. But most are for licensed personnel such as police forces and private security firms like the one in iraq. http://www.barrett-jackson.com/ Auctions off Hummers and some other vehicles.

SURE. First, you will need at least $40,000,000. You will need several millions of dollars to maintain it. If you're on a budget get a F-16, they are older but are just as efficient as newer fighters.

Yeah, but with all the advanced avionics on fighter and attack planes these days, better hope your last name is Gates, Allen or Buffet so you can afford to maintain them.
